ABOUT THE COFFEE
This is a coffee that is ideal for a daily ritual. Forest fruits bring freshness, sweet cherries build ripe fruitiness, and maple syrup ties the whole profile together with a pleasant sweetness.
ABOUT THE PROCESSING AND FARM
Although it is a classic washed process, a tremendous amount of work goes into its cleanliness. The cherries are hand-sorted right on the farm, and then go to the Bridazul washing station, where they are thoroughly washed and dried. Such precision allows for bringing out flavor clarity, distinct sweetness, and well-defined acidity, without unnecessary compromises.Flavors aside, what we probably love most about this coffee is its story. María Eugenia Herrera inherited the farm from her father in 1998, but after the devastation caused by Hurricane Mitch, growing coffee ceased to make economic sense. When she replanted coffee trees years later, the situation barely improved — coffee sales didn't even cover the costs of running the farm. Everything changed only thanks to a collaboration with Claudia Lovo and Bridazul, who focused on partnership relations, fair pay, and joint quality development.The result? Today, La Huerta has a future again, and we get to drink a coffee that is proof that good cooperation can achieve more than the most complicated brewing recipe.And by the way… María is over 70 years old and most often commutes to the farm on a motorcycle. It is hard to find a better reminder that determination has no expiration date.
Store in a dry and cool place.
