On this episode I am very excited to present an interview with Puerto Rican coffee producer and roaster Domenico Celli, founder of Forgotten Forest, one of the most exciting projects in contemporary coffee. For reasons historical, economic, and political, Puerto Rico has not been a large part of the specialty coffee industry. Forgotten Forest's overall ambition is to change that, with the socially-minded objective of providing an economically viable future for Puerto Rican coffee farmers. To do so, Domenico has been building out specialty coffee infrastructure in Puerto Rico, including farmer trainings and education, constructing a world-class processing facility, and learning everything he can about the specialty coffee world. On this episode, we talk about the origins of Forgotten Forest around the tragic aftermath of Hurricane Maria, and we get deep into Domenico's hope for a better coffee horizon in Puerto Rico's future.
