Ferney Quipo is the eldest of nine siblings, and grows coffee with his father on their farm in the Inza region of Colombia. The farm uses native trees for shade, and fertilizes crops with organic compost.
Remarkably, in addition to operating the farm, Ferney travels three times a week to Bogota, where he attends university to study accounting. This balance is difficult, but Ferney believes showing his children, family, and neighbors that doing both is possible is important, and can help improve the profitability of farming.
The coffee from the Quipo's farm is delicious. A blend of the Caturra and Colombia varietals, the cups are light bodied but super sweet with a refreshing acidity. We're tasting hibiscus, candied nuts, and dark fruit.
Frequently Asked Questions
When Will My Order Ship?
Most orders ship the next business day from when they are placed, unless that is a holiday.
The only exception is any pre-order item, which will ship on the date stated on that item's pre-order page.
Do You Have Recommendations For Brewing?
Yes!
First, we recommend a brewing ratio of about 1:17. So whatever your dose of coffee is for a brew (we recommend weighing your coffee in grams), multiply that number by 17, and use that weight of water to brew.
Second, always try to grind your coffee fresh, directly before you brew. This will significantly impact the flavor.
Lastly, and maybe most important, always use the highest quality water you can. Filtered is always best. Coffee is 98.5% water, so the water you use makes a huge difference.

Is ReAnimator Coffee Organic/Fair Trade?
While some of our coffees may happen to be certified organic or fair trade, we do not specifically look for either of these certifications when sourcing coffees, and do not market them as such.
All of our coffees are bought at fixed prices above the c-market, and 99% of the time we are paying higher prices than the Fair Trade Certified price.
Our sourcing goals are always quality and flavor focused, and we buy from producers and importers we trust to provide us with coffee that fits into our ideology.
