Hello my Friends!
Soy, Alba Reveron- Perez owner of Alba’s Cafecitos LLC. In 2016 I found myself desperately searching for a better me. My work was at the front of all I did, but not my family nor myself. I dedicated time to helping other moms and encouraging their children development, all the while my child wasn't getting the best of me. It took only one mandatory stay at the hospital for me to decide I needed a change. Coffee would become my rescue, the salvation to becoming the mom and wife I know I wanted to be.
As I was researching different approaches to combat diabetes, I began to learn the benefits of coffee. Research showed one black cup of organic coffee will help lower your blood sugars. Along with the encouragement of my doctor, I started to combine that knowledge with other foods that were common in my household but not always used for health benefits.
Sitting at the kitchen table with my mom and husband I expressed how I wanted to help my community and teach them about how we overly consume. That something so common like Coffee was now becoming one of the highest sugar intakes. I figured I can show it can be healthy. I would start by inviting them to have a Cafecito (cup of coffee) with me. That's how Alba’s Cafecitos was born. We started with our Casa Blend, then Vida De Oro Decaf, and my new favorite Jax Espresso (totally bias).
Jax Espresso was developed with my son Jaxson who as he describes himself and his product as full of energy, nutty (like peanut butter), and sweet (mama added that part). The opportunity to play “mad scientist” as we say. We spent hours and days just having fun with each origin of coffee bean, cupping them individually and then mixing them to create the flavor profile we wanted. It's a reminder to myself that you can’t take work or life to seriously. Involving him in this process emphasizes why I decided to open my own business. So that we can both explore and create.
As a company, but more importantly as a Family, we are working closely with various companies and organizations to help empower women and children. Not only within our own community but, around the world especially within the coffee industry.
