Reviews
Average rating
Berry flavours, fairly rounded, not horribly acidic. Fairly unobjectionable, will happily drink but not my favourite. I'd like to see what it was like with a lighter roast!
Hi John - thanks for the review - would not want to roast this any lighter as we are only just out of first crack at 217 thus there would be very little devlopment
Another winner A good rich full flavoured coffee. I make mine as cappuccino, double shot of course. The flavour is full on and highly enjoyable. Get to the bottom of one cup and you immediately want another.

Additional Information
This espresso uses the collective crop from six Rock Star coffee farmers we work with in the small village of Angel Diaz in the Siltepec region of Mexico.
In the line up we have Rayder Peter Hernández who farms 10Ha of Red / Yellow Bourbon. Sabira De Leon, farming 10Ha of Red Bourbon. Herminia Hernández the daughter of Sabira farming 1Ha of outstanding Bourbon. Gregorio Munaz Angel farming 9Ha of Bourbon, and Arabe and Julio Roblero Vazquez, farming 3Ha of Bourbon.
The passion for quality in this village is verging on the insane – we know this as we visited for the first time in 2015 and again in 2017. You do not normally see this kind of quality from small scale farmers that would normally sell into the main bulk markets or to a middle man / collector.
The village of Angel Diaz is a couple hour’s drive from the Guatemalan border, although it basically took us two days of flying and driving from Mexico City to Tuxtla Gutiérrez and then on to Angel Diaz to meet with these guys. Take a left off an main road and Angel Diaz is at the end of 47 miles of a dirt and rock track which took us up to 1900 meters which holds the cloud forest and middle rain forest of the Soconusco zone around the Novillero River – a stunning area.
These coffees in our opinion are little brighter and sweeter than the rest of the other growing areas in Mexico – a resemblance to the Huehuetenango growing areas of Guatemala.
The cherries are as selectivity picked and then an additional pre-sorting happens before wet processing in the village to make double sure that only the best and ripest cherries are processed.
The coffee is wet processed which consists of depulping the cherries and removing the fruit and some of the mucilage on the beans through a washing process which is done on the evening of harvest.
The coffee is left overnight in fermentation tanks to complete the fermentation process. After this the coffee is washed, and the parchment is carefully set on the patios for sun-drying. They are then transpoted to the dry mill in Siltepec.
Decaffeination Process
This coffee was sent for decaffeination at the Mountain Water facility in Veracruz, Mexico – also sometimes referred to as Mexican Water Process.
This unique non-chemical decaffeination process uses the clear waters from the highest mountain in Mexico, the Pico de Orizaba to gently remove the caffeine from the green beans.
In basic terms the process works by immersing the green beans in water in order to extract the caffeine content. The water preserves the soluble flavour components of the green beans and this protects the original characteristics of the coffee.
In order to remove the caffeine from the water containing these soluble flavour elements, the water is passed through a filtration system. This produces a solution comprising the original mountain water and the soluble coffee flavours, now free from caffeine.
The resulting green coffee is 99.9% caffeine-free. The beans are then dried to the required moisture content prior to our importation.
The Moutain Water Process is patented and is also organically certified in accordance with the regulations of OCIA, NOP and JAS. It is also Kosher certified.
In June 2017, the The International Taste & Quality Institute based in Brussels with judges selected from 15 of the most prestigious European culinary and sommeliers associations awarded Mountain Water Decaf a gold star Superior rating.
