As the sun sets in the west, we look to the California coast to ring in the end of the year. Bountiful, festive, and super natural, west~bourne is bringing the best of the west with mindful makers and conscious growers from our home in Los Angeles, from the seeds in our coastal soil to your holiday table. This year’s limited edition holiday gift box hopes to inspire slower mornings and indulgent days during this respite before the next year rises to meet us.
What's Inside:

Café Telegrama x Canyon Coffee Alentejo Regenerative Roast
-
The glowing sun pouring into Café Telegrama in Melrose Hill, run by two beloved Angelenos, is something to behold and emanates from their beautiful roast with the help of Ally and Casey of Canyon Coffee, another local neighborhood staple. Every inch designed by artist John Zabawa reflects a nostalgic nod to a past era in LA yet feels minimalist and contemporary all the same, and with its design these beans are grown, picked, and roasted with inspired intent every single step. This is a rich, dark roast with notes of chocolate, nougat, and stone fruit that’s an espresso-like flavor on the frontier of sustainability, a California take on an Italian classic.
- This coffee is sourced from family-owned farms organized around Asociación de Productores Agropecuarios de Santa Rosa (ASPRASAR). ASPRASAR is a producer association with 94 members who live in Saldaña a municipality in the department of Tolima, Colombia. ASPRASAR was founded in 2016 and works in collaboration with an export company called Lohas Beans to establish connections in the specialty coffee market, which has improved coffee prices for its members and enables farmers to reinvest in their farms and provide for their families.
