Roaster Grano x Grano

A single-origin Bourbon from the Tapachula corridor of Chiapas, grown at Finca Hamburgo in the Sierra Madre. High citric acidity drives this cup — yellow fruit and lime up front, followed by a dark chocolate finish that grounds the brightness. Medium sweetness and a juicy, medium body. Best as a pour-over or filter brew where the acidity can really open up.

The Origin

Finca Hamburgo was founded in 1888 by German immigrant Arthur Edelmann in Tapachula, near the Guatemala border in the Soconusco region. Five generations later, the farm spans 580 hectares at 1,200 meters in the Sierra Madre, powered entirely by hydroelectric energy with over 300 hectares under organic cultivation. The Bourbon varietal grown here benefits from volcanic soil and Pacific-influenced weather patterns that produce intense, fruit-forward profiles. Today the estate also operates as an ecotourism destination — but the coffee remains the reason it exists.
