Julian and Luci from Humboldt Bay Coffee attended the Specialty Coffee Association Expo in Houston in April 2025. At the event, Luci spoke to producers about what roasters look for when sourcing coffee—focusing on transparency, consistency, and long-term relationships. The team also made progress on a direct trade partnership with a women-led farm in Mexico, with a limited roast set to release this summer. Another key connection was with Rama Aulia Saputra, the General Manager of Sumatra Permata Gayo Cooperative in Indonesia, who shared insights on coffee production and farmer support. The blog ties these moments together as part of Humboldt Bay Coffee’s ongoing mission to bring quality and purpose into every cup.
