Grape. Macadamia. Brown Sugar.

About this coffee :

Hipolito started producing coffee in 1989, with 800 coffee plants, in a plot that his father gave him. At that time, he did not know how important the final product was. He had a breakthrough by becoming a member of COMSA, which allowed him to become aware of what coffee farming represents and what it also entails.

As time went on, his children grew older and now his daughter has already finished her studies and is the one who helps him in the administration of the farm. It’s important for him that his family views coffee production as a family heritage so that they can continue producing specialty coffee for generations.

All coffees are processed in an artisanal way, producing a unique profile. After pulping, coffee is fermented in tanks or barrels (depending on the family) for around 24 hours. It is then fully washed in clean water to remove all mucilage. All waste products (water and pulp) from the wet process are handled so as to minimise environmental impact, and much is actually returned to the soil as organic fertiliser. All drying is conducted on families’ own patios. Coffee is spread in very thin layers and is turned regularly so as to ensure even drying.

Granadilla is a hidden gem not known by many due to minimal marketing effort, and that also give us a chance to get it at a steal! The quality is way above its price, super elegant & comfortable cuppa with grape and macadamia nutty aromatics, long brown sugary finish. A soothing coffee perfect to enjoy in the evening.
