Cutbow Coffee:

Cutbow Coffee Roastology is the culmination of more than 25 years experience by one of the nation's most accomplished artisan coffee roasters, Albuquerque New Mexico's own Paul Gallegos. Personally batch roasting over 70 million pounds for Peet's Coffee, the pre-eminent craft coffee roaster in the US, Paul's acumen is undeniable.  Every batch he roasts reveals the exemplary skills of a true master of the craft. Every cup you enjoy is proof of his passion for great coffee.

Cutbow Coffee is named after the cutbow trout, and in honor of Paul's late father, an avid fisherman of the waters in northern New Mexico. A portion of proceeds from every bag sold will be donated to the Hermit's Peak Watershed Alliance, working to assure quality water in some of his father's favorite fishing holes. Fish on.

The Brew

Description:

I’m a third generation Colombian coffee grower. As a child I grew up running through the fields of my grandfather’s coffee farm in Piendamo, Cauca, Colombia. Learning from the best about coffee, tradition and best practices.

My brother and I returned to our roots and started Villa Myriam Coffee in 2009. I started my education through the Barista Guild of America (BGA) and got certified taking all classes for level 1 and 2. We also got certified and educated through the Rosters Guild of America (RGA) to ensure that we can provide the best coffee available. 

In 2019 I sold Villa Myriam to focus on The Brew, changing my business model from industrialized to artisan, being able to focus on small batch roasting to order and engaging and working with my community here in the US and in Colombia. Join me and my community of coffee lovers and help me support small coffee growers all around the world.
