Every great voyage begins somewhere ...and for coffee, that "somewhere" is never just a place on a map. It's a hillside at sunrise. A family farm passed through generations. A careful hand selecting only the ripest cherries.
This Spring 2026, Skipper's Remedy® sets its course toward the origins that make every cup possible ...bringing forward a collection of single-origin, specialty-grade coffees that pay tribute not only to flavor, but to the culture, care, and craft of the farmers behind them.
These are not just coffees. They are living stories.
Bali, Indonesia: Harmony in Every Harvest
In the Kintamani Highlands, where volcanic soil breathes life into every root, coffee is grown as part of something larger than agriculture ...it's a philosophy. Organized through Subak Abian, Balinese farmers follow Tri Hita Karana, a thousand-year-old belief in harmony between people, nature, and the divine.
Here, small family farms cultivate coffee alongside citrus trees, never using synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Each cherry is hand-picked, sorted, and processed through the traditional Giling Basah (wet-hulling) method ...giving rise to the signature bluish hue of Bali Blue Moon beans.
Tasting Notes: Bakers chocolate, orange peel, juniper, molasses, clean finish
This is coffee shaped by ritual, community, and balance ...steady as the tide, and just as enduring.
Honduras: Strength in Community
High in the mist-covered mountains of Cerro Azul, coffee grows slowly ...developing sweetness and complexity with every passing day. Here, the work is shared through Coop Cafetalera Siguatepeque Limitada (COHORSIL), a cooperative where smallholder farmers come together to strengthen both their craft and their communities.
Through shared knowledge, sustainable practices, and investments in education and reforestation, coffee becomes more than a crop ...it becomes a future.
Tasting Notes: Apple, dark chocolate, nuts
Every cup carries the quiet resilience of the highlands and the collective spirit of those who cultivate it.
Colombia: Legacy in the Mountains
In the foothills of the Cordillera Central, a group of 59 farmers formed Cafe del Macizo ...a union built on shared knowledge and a deep respect for the land. Decades of experience meet ideal growing conditions in Tolima's high elevations, where coffee develops vibrant complexity and balance.
Tasting Notes: Dark chocolate, mango, peach, rounded body, medium acidity
This is a coffee shaped by collaboration and legacy ...where every harvest reflects years of refinement and pride.
Peru: Growing Opportunity Together
In the Amazonian Andes of northern Peru, what began as 35 farmers has grown into a thriving cooperative known as El Palto. Today, nearly 200 members ...including a strong and growing group of women producers ...cultivate organic coffee across hundreds of hectares.
Their mission is clear: improve quality, increase sustainability, and elevate the livelihoods of every member family.
Tasting Notes: Lemon, herbal notes, chocolate, smooth body
This is coffee rooted in opportunity ...where growth is shared, and success is collective.
Mexico: Cultivating Independence
In the lush landscapes of Chiapas, Alma de Chiapas serves as both a cooperative and an incubator ...helping farmers build the skills needed to thrive independently in the specialty coffee world.
With nearly 600 farmers working together across more than 1,600 hectares, the focus is not only on quality, but on empowerment ...supporting producers in business, finance, and sustainable farming practices.
Tasting Notes: Rich chocolate, dark cherry, orange, creamy body, clean finish
Each cup reflects both tradition and transformation ...a bridge between heritage and progress.
Guatemala: Strength in Simplicity
From the highlands of Huehuetenango, over 400 family-owned farms contribute to a coffee that is both humble and exceptional. Grown at high altitudes in mineral-rich soils, these coffees develop clarity and sweetness that shine through every roast.
With limited infrastructure, producers partner with centralized mills to ensure quality processing, while organizations like CoffeeCare support education, nutrition, and community wellbeing.
Tasting Notes: Lemon-lime, nougat, brown sugar, medium body
This is coffee shaped by resilience ...simple in means, extraordinary in result.
A Shared Journey
Behind every bag of Skipper's Remedy® coffee is a network of hands, histories, and hopes. From volcanic slopes to misty highlands, from cooperative gatherings to family farms, each origin brings something irreplaceable to the cup.
We don't just source coffee ...we honor it.
We don't just roast beans ...we carry stories forward.
So when you brew your next cup, know this:
You're not just tasting flavor notes ...you're experiencing a journey that began long before it reached your mug.
And it's one worth savoring.
