AN EXCEPTIONAL CUP BORN FROM HUSBAND AND WIFE COLLABORATION
We first met Luis Reinoso in 2010 and have been buying his coffee ever since. Luis produces coffee in a collaborative effort with his wife, Yenni, whose name you may recognize from our other label from the Reinoso farm. The Reinoso’s had the first coffee Madcap ever purchased from Colombia. Luis and Yenni operate on a small, secluded 11-hectare farm on the outskirts of Herrera, Tolima. There you’ll find Luis diligently keeping records while processing small batches, and Yenni raking the drying coffee on top of the roof of their farmhouse. Though this coffee bears his name, Luis is the first to emphasize that it’s an equal partnership between Yenni and himself. In this balanced cup, expect notes of cherry, red apple, and nougat.

Madcap + the Reinosos
We've been partnering with Luis and Yenni Reinoso since 2010. Theirs was the first coffee we ever purchased from Colombia, and we were immediately in love with it. Since, the Reinosos’ coffee has become a staple and fan favorite at Madcap.
Our Partnership Today
We like the Reinosos and their coffee so much that we buy most of the coffee produced on the farm, saving the very best for our single origin and using the rest to form the backbone of our roaster’s blends. In this single origin, expect notes of cherry nougat, and rose.
