At Tenfold, we believe coffee is never just a drink—it’s a story of choices, resilience, and community. The Young Producer Lot is a perfect example of this truth: a collaborative effort born from passion, dedication, and innovation.
What Is the Young Producer Lot?
This lot is part of the Young Producer Program (YCA), an initiative from our partners at Unblended Coffee. It brings together small producers—each with their own unique story—who have chosen coffee not simply as a livelihood, but as a deliberate life’s pursuit. By pooling their harvests, they’re able to guarantee year-round availability, ensure consistent quality, and build a cup profile that reflects both excellence and collaboration.
The result? A coffee that excites from the very first sip. Expect juicy notes of raspberry, blackberry, and peach, beautifully balanced with complex chocolate tones, sweetness, and vibrant acidity. It’s a cup that reminds us why we fell in love with coffee in the first place.
Why the Young Producer Program Matters
Unblended’s Young Producer Program is about far more than farming techniques—it’s about building a future. The program guides young farmers in creating their own projects, positioning their brands internationally, and improving profitability in ways that dignify their work. It’s an invitation for the next generation to step into the global coffee community with courage, skill, and vision.
For us at Tenfold, that vision resonated deeply. When we met the Unblended team early in 2024—through what started as a simple pop-in—we quickly realized our values aligned. Their commitment to both people and craft mirrors our own, and since then, our partnership has flourished through shared events and shared belief in the future of coffee.
Why Partnerships Like This Matter
Great coffee doesn’t happen in isolation. It’s the product of intentional relationships—farmers, exporters, importers, and roasters all working together with trust at the center. The Young Producer Lot embodies that spirit.
When you drink this coffee, you’re tasting the future of Colombia’s young producers—their willingness to innovate, their resilience in the face of challenges, and their passion for excellence. And you’re also joining a larger story: one where roasters and drinkers like us can champion a more dignified, sustainable, and exciting future for coffee.
A Bright Future in Every Cup
The Young Producer Lot is more than a product on our shelves; it’s a celebration of collaboration and a glimpse of what’s possible when the industry invests in its future. We’re honored to share it with you—and we hope each sip reminds you that coffee is not only about flavor, but about people, possibility, and progress.
