Blind Monkey is a specialty coffee roastery founded by Wojciech Tysler, a serial competitor with titles including Finalist World Barista Championships 2021 & Irish Barista Champion 2023. The team sources high-quality coffees through direct relationships with producers. Focused on consistency and flavour rather than trends, they serve baristas, home brewers, and wholesale partners with the same attention to detail. The name reflects their philosophy: staying true to what matters in coffee.

Wojciech has a deep appreciation for Colombian coffees, and we had a delightful selection to choose from. However, we are particularly pleased with the one we selected. It has a clean profile, with just the right amount of sweetness, vibrant notes of lemongrass, smooth mango, and a cocoa finish. There are also hints of orange blossom, making it a classic and incredibly sophisticated choice.

Since their first Cup of Excellence appearance in 2018, the Ospina family has earned eight winning lots. Linarco has led most of these successes, consistently producing clean, sweet, and vibrant coffees. At Finca Betania, you'll find traditional varieties upwards of 40 years old, a nod to the generations of Rodriguez Ospina family that have lived there before. When combined with innovative techniques and hybrid varieties, Lino crystallises both the traditions and potential of Colombian specialty coffee.

Bourbon Chiroso, a rare variety, is prized for its lively and refined cup. Discovered around the same time as Pink Bourbon, it shares a similar status among specialty producers. Often considered a native Geisha-type, Chiroso offers delicate floral notes like jasmine, with bright mandarin and a balanced, complex sweetness that makes it truly memorable.
