Roaster Grano x Grano

A washed and fermented single-origin from Finca La Esperanza in the Huatusco corridor of Veracruz. Bourbon, Sarchimor, Catimores, and Obata varietals combine to produce a layered cup: chocolate and caramel on the front, vanilla and sweet spice on the mid-palate, with citric acidity and a silky body that makes this one dangerously easy to drink.

The Origin

Finca La Esperanza was founded in 1946 by Don Antonio Rincon and Doña Luisa Garcia in Huatusco, Veracruz. Three generations later, Emmanuel Rincon Vazquez has modernized the 300-hectare estate with environmental conservation methods and is experimenting with anaerobic washed fermentation for competition-level quality. The volcanic soils and Gulf Coast humidity at 1,200–1,800 meters create growing conditions unlike anywhere else in Mexico. Screen 18+ grading (90%+ pass rate, max 8 defects per 300g) ensures consistency across every batch.
