Colombia Patio Bonito - Transparency Report
This transparency report shares the sourcing and pricing information behind our Patio Bonito coffee. As part of Rumble Coffee's Transparency Project, we publish what we paid for every coffee we sell, as well as key information about the producer or producer group, farm, and the coffee itself.
About the Patio Bonito Farm
This is our second year sourcing coffee from Patio Bonito, a family-run farm in the mountains of Caldono, Cauca. Carlos Trujillo has spent nearly five decades growing coffee, while his daughter Paola has brought a fresh perspective after years working as a cupper and coffee buyer. Together they've transformed the farm into a centre of experimentation, refining natural and washed processing methods that showcase the remarkable quality of Cauca while staying deeply connected to family, tradition and place.
Across 11 hectares, Patio Bonito is home to nearly 47,000 coffee trees spanning 13 varieties, with every decision guided by quality, sustainability and education. Paola has introduced innovative techniques, including anaerobic fermentation and thermal shock processing, helping the farm produce expressive, fruit-forward coffees without losing balance or clarity. Alongside exceptional coffee, the Trujillo family is committed to soil conservation, food security and sharing knowledge with neighbouring farmers, ensuring the farm's impact extends well beyond each beautiful harvest.

Transparency and coffee pricing
Pricing Comparison
|
We believe a sustainable coffee industry starts with producers being paid fair prices for our coffees. That's why, as part of our Transparency Project, we publish what we pay for every coffee we buy and compare those prices with key industry benchmarks, to help put the price paid for this coffee into context. In 2019, Rumble signed the Transparency Pledge alongside a growing number of roasters around the globe, committing us to greater transparency around coffee sourcing and pricing. Our aim is to offer our customers honest and transparent pricing information so that you can best understand where your money is going. You can learn more about how we source and pay for our coffees, and explore all of our Transparency Reports. |

Pricing Explained
FOB (Free on Board)
This is the FOB (Free On Board) price: the price paid to the exporter before international shipping, and which does not include shipping costs, weight loss (around 17%), storage and other charges. Ultimately, the FOB price represents the figure that stays in the coffee's country of origin, benefiting its producer, community, and beyond.
We publish FOB in both $USD/lb, the standard used for international coffee pricing, as well as $AUD/kg to make the price easier for Australian customers to understand.
Farm Gate Price
The Farm Gate price is the raw price paid directly to the producer, and paid in the local currency for parchment coffee. The coffee is then milled and sorted before being placed in bags, ready for shipping. In some cases, the Farm Gate price is marked as N/A. This is typically when we purchase the coffee through a co-op or a collective of producers.
Market Price
This is the global commodity coffee price at the time of purchase (known as the 'C Market') which is commonly used as a benchmark for coffee prices around the world.
Fairtrade Price
The Fairtrade price is the minimum set by Fairtrade International for certified coffee. It's a safety net when the market price is low, but it isn't designed to reward coffee producers for the quality of their coffee. We include it because it's a recognised industry benchmark, against which to compare the price that we paid.
