Sourcing
The Sugar Maples, a rustic coffee farm owned by Roxana Yamileth Zelaya Guardado, is home to cultivated apple trees and a wide variety of native trees and plants. Roxana employs eight workers and especially enjoys working with young farmers, teaching them about coffee production and responsibility.
Las Veraneras is the main coffee estate of Tierra Bendita's Biokrop Project where Jorge Cruz Reyes and Laura Rubio produce specialty coffee using zero agrochemicals and low-impact sustainable processes. Tierra Bendita's team of scientists uses Agroecology to improve and maintain the fertility of the farm's soil using both high tech innovations and ancestral cultivation methods.
Finca San Andres is a small specialty coffee farm managed by Jose Recinos and owned by his father Francisco Recinos. Jose focuses on producing high quality micro lots. He harvests only fully ripe cherries by hand, ferments them in sacks for 11 to 17 hours, de-pulps and washes them, then dries them on raised beds for an average of 10 to 16 days.

Chemex
Form meets function in the classically beautiful Chemex brewer. Grind size is critical when brewing with this method since the brew bed can get large. Use a coarser grind to experience bright and floral fruit notes.
