Wilson Alva is a longtime coffee farmer who’s just begun his specialty coffee producing journey. The Sierra Morena coffee farm was owned by Wilson’s grandfather, but the family decided to move away from coffee production and focus on fruits. After Wilson inherited the farm he began to replant coffee trees, primarily cultivating the Pink Bourbon variety. This coffee underwent a mixed fermentation process, with cherries being held for about 18 hours before being depulped and fermented dry for 48 hours, then washed and dried on raised beds. The result is a juicy and intense cup filled with sweet and tart notes. We tasted berries, citrus, and sweet apple juice.

Every coffee we share has been tasted and recommended by our expert Tasting Panel who have years of experience in specialty coffee. We cast a wide net, trying hundreds of coffees, keeping an open mind to new regions, processes, and roasters, and going through many rounds of cupping. If there was an easier way of choosing each coffee, we wouldn't want to do it.
