In 2022 during an origin trip to Honduras, I learned that connecting with others can happen no matter how many words are said. 

I was disconnected from everything I’d ever known, yet was brought back from a dark place by just a tap on the shoulder. 

This is a special short story by Wiser, he’s been the first guest at every one of our cafes and our Marketing Team Lead.

The Hike - A short Story About Connection

We have a new guest on the pod this week, our Roastery Team Leader Andre! This week Michael, Jared and Andre sit down to review our recent origin trip to Honduras. Origin trips are a really important part of our culture of connection, getting to meet the people and see the communities that our coffee comes from has a huge impact on the way we share our coffee with you. 

Listen to the full episode to hear Andre’s experience on his first Origin trip, and how that experience has changed the way he connects to the coffee he works with every day. And hear Jared describe the best friends club, how it impacts our community of producers, and what it means to us to build deep symbiotic relationships with our producers.
