Our first release this harvest from our good friend and direct trade partner, Nancy Hernandez. The Angelical is a Natural, and part of our processing series from Nancy – the full lineup being Washed, Honey, Natural and Anaerobic Natural. We find this lot to be very juicy and balanced with prominent berry notes. It tastes very clean for a Natural coffee, which is a testament to Nancy’s excellent processing skill.
Back in March of 2020, we met Nancy not on her farm but in the café-roastery she built in the town she calls home in La Paz. At the time we were blown away by not only her delicious coffee, but the place she’d built to enjoy it. It became a cherished memory once the world shut down, one last coffee with a producer we admired before everything changed. We are so excited to finally share that coffee after all of this – it takes us back to a time that feels so long ago.
