Where are you located? ( City and Country ): Buenos Aires, Argentina

About Me:: I`m a Foreign Trade Consultant (and coffee lover), that was lucky enough to made it to the WBC2007. Unfortunately the airline lost my luggage, which arrived only a few minutes before my competition time. I was disqualified ... but I did learn a lot about coffee and the barista profession.

I`m working to promote the consumption of specialty coffee and the barista profession in Argentine ... and soon in Latin-America, too.

Hi again Fede, I would love to hear more about this project.. my e-mail is jst1@hi.is
I haven´t taken that many pictures myself here, but I am slowly collecting them from people around me.. Actually the guys from the NBC trip were talking about making a flickr page and everybody would put their best pictures there.. I´ll try and put pressure on them to do so:)

Fede; Greetings from San Francisco, CALIFORNIA.
What can I help you with this week? I see your in South America. I have a grower in Puerto Rico you should speak to. He is an SCAA judge and we have designed his new cafe in POnce. He would be interested in what you are doing.

He supports the Latin-American Barista community in PR. Could help you bridge the continent...

I would love to know more about what you are involved with...I have been involved in a few social improvment projects over the past 5 years and want to continue in the area. I've been to New Guinea working on a school building project and that got me hooked. I'd love to help.

Thanks for your email! I've not really got a lot on information/statistics for the sort of thing you need, sorry! It depends a lot on who you are marketing it to, where, and how. I do know that the speciality coffee market is getting bigger and bigger, especially in this country. I'll answer the questions you sent me in an email later. until then, buena suerte!

Feb 28, 2008
Bel Townsend

Do you mean in terms of what percentage of the market is speciality? I'll have to look it up but I can find that out some how. -Will write later, bit busy right now!

Federico Bolaños

Hola Federico,
Disculpas por no haberte respondido antes, pero tenia desde enero de no entrar al sitio web barista exchange.
Me alegró mucho que me hayas contactado porque es emocionante ponerse en contacto baristas de otros paises.
Tengo una duda: el unico primo Rodrigo que tengo vive en Estados Unidos y no tiene nada que ver con el mundo gastronomico y mucho menos con el de café. Porque crees que estuviste con un Rodrigo pariente mio?
Te cuento que mi esposa acaba de ganar el 1er campeonato de baristas de El Salvador y se está preparando para el WBC2008...algún consejo?
Bueno, estamos a tus ordenes en El Salvador si algún día pasas por aquí, solo danos una llamada. El telefono de nuestro café bar y tostaduría es 2289-4499.
Saludos,
Federico Bolaños

Hola Fede

Que interesante! Mira, hay 12 estados cafetaleros, pero los más fuertes en producción son Chiapas, Veracruz y Oaxaca. Cada estado tiene además muchos lugares culturales a los cuales asistir.
Mándame tu proyecto a amccemex@gmail.com

Hi,
I just undestood something about your venture, and would like to know whether you like me to be in your schedule or not? As almost only one, who have different understanding and theory about coffee and espresso from most others, I may give you a surprise for your projects. I am looking forward to hearing from you about this.

Claro que puedes mandarnos la informacion. Estamos un poco inundado con preparaciones para SCAA, pero cuando tengamos tiempo podemos leerlo. Mandalo a kyle@coffeekids.org

Hi, I´m in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Minas is the state that produces more coffee in Brazil. We have several farms, and some coffee-producing specialty coffee. If you want I can give you some.
See you!
Adios...

Mar 31, 2008
Peter Tam

I had seen your talk to others about your project, and you can supply air teckets and accommodations for those who can go to your country to train the baristas. What I meant is that I can do it, if you want, because we had developed a great theory about the coffee and its brewing, specially for the espresso and specialty coffee. If you want, please let me know.
