Source Code

On this weeks episode of Source Code, we talk to one of Canada's smartest, funniest and talented coffee buyers- Mr Josh Hockin. I first met Josh back in 2016 on a visit to Colombia and there we formed a bond (at least I think we did?) that bloomed into a distant friendship and so, for me, having josh on the program is both and honor and a pleasure and I hope you enjoying listening to his perspective as much as we did.

Show Notes

In episode 05, we sit down with Director of Coffee & 2011 Canadian Barista Champ Josh Hockin from Alberta, Canadas Transcend Coffee. I first met Josh back in 2016 on a sourcing trip to Colombia and really enjoyed his approach to developing meaningful relationships with their producing partners and prioritizing higher prices which makes them a stellar example of a business that seeks to promote true equity and sustainability with our industry. 

What is Source Code?

Source Code focuses on showcasing the inner working of coffee sourcing, transparency, and sustainability within specialty coffee. Each week, we interview other industry professionals to discuss themes such as certifications, should quality be tied to a living wage, and why transparency is important, yet complicated.
