The podcast is BACK. This episode was recorded on a 7-hour drive through the mountains of Colombia with Valor, Lucas Cuadros (Unblended), and Trevor Clark (Black & White Coffee Roasters). We break down coffee as an ingredient vs coffee as a product, why origin relationships and storytelling matter, how roasters grow e-commerce as café margins tighten, and what it looks like when producers level up into specialty. If you’re a roaster, café owner, or coffee nerd who cares about where coffee’s heading next, you clicked on the right pod.
