MEDIUM ROAST

Volcanic soil and high-quality coffee go together like peanut butter and chocolate. So it’s no surprise to find that many of the farms producing amazing coffee are in the shadows of volcanoes. And that’s right where you’ll find Maria Cristina Llach’s farm – on the slopes of Cerro el Tigre (Tiger Mountain), an inactive stratovolcano. An eon ago, that farm wouldn’t be able to exist due to the violent nature of a stratovolcano eruption, but tens of thousands of years later we get to enjoy the fruits of some of the best soil in the world.

Maria Cristina is producing several varieties of incredible coffee on her farm, this on is a blend of orange and red Bourbon. Typically, the bourbon coffee varietal exhibits bright acidity, but this coffee's acidity is slightly muted, but what was traded for the acidity is a super rich body and a velvety texture.

Flavor
Surprisingly sweet with big notes of dark chocolate, cashew butter, caramel and a gentle undertone of black cherry. It’s a dessert in a cup, a downright chocolate bomb! If you like your brownies a little nutty or you’re a fan of peanut butter cups, you’re going to love this coffee.
