Blue Hill + Irving Farm | Coffee Partnership
We are proud to work with both Blue Hill and Blue Hill at Stone Barns as their exclusive coffee partner. This season they're serving coffee from Nora Pillimue. Her coffee from the Huila region of Colombia is available only at Blue Hill's restaurants and Grain Bar.
Tasting Notes:
Red Currant/ Sugar Cane/ Clove
Blue Hill at Stone Barns' world class restaurant is located on the grounds of Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture. In addition to the restaurant, they operate the Grain Bar where center visitors can pick up whole grain baked goods, flip through a copy of Chef Dan Barber's The Third Plate: Field Notes on the Future of Food, and have our coffee.
Our partnership with Blue Hill offers us the unique privilege of sharing our producer's stories with their staff. Mayita, from our coffee team, led a training session to pass along Nora Pillimue's story.
Nora has been a member of the Monserrate cooperative in Colombia since December 2015. She loves working with coffee, and picks and washes all of her farm's coffee with her husband and two children. When Mayita tasted Nora’s coffee during the cooperative’s seasonal competition, its delicacy and elegance paid tribute to the hard work the family puts into it and secured top honors. ⠀

We have been buying Nora’s coffee since 2016. ⠀
