Characteristics

 

Vaquero is the Spanish word for cowboy, y’see, so we figured it was only right that we rustle up an authentic flavor experience. Traditionally, cowboy coffee is made in a heavy cast iron pot over an open wood fire by some ol’ boy named Wyatt or Buck. But for the rest of us, there is Vaquero – chock full of lower notes like nuts, tobacco and dark chocolate with a heavy body. Cue slow, sad song and ride off into sunset.

 

Current Bean

 

 The current Vaquero is a natural bourbon from the Cahoeira de Grama farm in Brazil. This is a very balanced and sweet coffee that has a great body. A subtle and clean acidity contribute to the overall flavor making this coffee a solid go-to bean for anyone who loves sweet big bodied coffees.
