Tasting Notes: Caramel, Maple Syrup, Berry

Sourced from Cafeticultores Orgánicos de Oaxaca, this coffee reflects the strength of smallholder farmers working together through Fair Trade cooperatives. Grown at high elevation in one of Mexico’s most biodiverse regions, this washed coffee delivers a smooth, comforting sweetness reminiscent of caramel and maple syrup, balanced by a soft berry note. The result is an approachable, crowd-pleasing cup with depth and clarity, perfect for everyday brewing while still offering enough complexity to linger.

Bean Origins

This coffee is a washed-process lot made up primarily of Bourbon, Typica, and Mundo Novo varieties, grown at elevations ranging from 1200 to 1800 MASL. After harvest, cherries are depulped the same day and fermented for 12–18 hours before being washed clean of mucilage and slowly dried. This method emphasizes clarity and structure, allowing the inherent sweetness of the bean to take center stage.

The combination of high elevation and traditional varieties contributes to a balanced cup with a smooth, syrupy body. Caramel and maple syrup notes form the foundation, while a gentle berry brightness adds dimension without overpowering. Clean, approachable, and well-structured, this coffee is a classic expression of high-grown Oaxaca coffee with a refined, modern profile.
