COFFEE OF THE MONTH
Every month, we select unique beans for you in three reveals: Espresso of the Month, Filter of the Month, and - starting now - Royal Coffee. This is our signature selection of coffees that we particularly want to show and recommend to you in a given month. Espresso and Filter of the Month are carefully selected specialty coffees that will work great every day.
Royal Coffee , already known from our cafes, is an option for those who want to reach even higher: a limited and slightly wilder coffee from the Royal Beans selection, distinguished by its unique taste, origin, or processing method. We thoroughly test each of them using various brewing methods, prepare recommended recipes, and tell the story of its beans. See for yourself what we have prepared for you this month!
ABOUT THE FARM FROM THE ROASTERY
Finca Los Bellotos is one of the most beautiful and well-kept farms we have ever visited, and it is right there that the famous Bernardina varietal was discovered! It is located in the western part of the Cerro Verde volcano and was purchased in 2012 by the Pacas family enterprise, whose history spans five generations.
The farm's name comes from the famous, gorgeous, and endangered Belloto trees, which can be easily found throughout the farm and create a dense canopy of shade for the coffee trees. The farm also faces the Izalco volcano, which protects the coffee trees from the wind.
Ruperto Bernardino Merche is the farm manager and believes in human goodness. He managed to create a team of hardworking (tolerance to coffee rust is extremely low), spiritual souls who make great efforts to produce amazing coffees.
Here, morning work starts earlier than usual because fog reduces visibility in the afternoon.
