Sourcing note

Volcan Azul is more than a hundred years old and is now run by Alejo Castro, the sixth generation of farmers. Alejo, who is in his thirties, is part of the modern coffee movement and has considerably developed his production: plot-based planting, adaptation of prestigious botanical varieties and goldsmith's precision in the many processes used on the farm.

Tasting notes

On the nose: notes of sweet spices, stone fruit and chocolate. 

On the palate: a silky, enveloping texture. The cup oscillates between milk chocolate and stone fruit, underpinned by the slight exotic acidity that is the signature of this iconic Volcan Azul coffee.

This coffee is roasted for espresso methods and slow coffee methods.
