FES Pacamara Bronze: this is one of the Pacamaras grown on our farm. Pacamara is an unfinished variety — it still displays variations. Some plants look more similar to one of the parents.

Pacamara was created by cross-pollinating a giant plant, Maragogype, with a dwarf plant, Pacas. The plants resembling Maragogype have bronze leaves. We find this one tastes better than the green-leaved Pacamara, so we are selecting seeds just from the bronze-leaved plants.

V60 — 1:15.5, 3:30, medium-coarse at 95 °C. Origami — 1:16, 3:45, bloom 60 s then two even pours. AeroPress — 15 g : 230 g, 2:15, medium grind.

Roasted as a light Nordic-style omni roast — a profile built for filter, with a long, gentle caramelisation at a lower finishing temperature. It keeps the origin's acidity, clarity and aromatics intact, and it happily travels to other preparations.

Santa Ana lots open slowly — this one is at its best after a month of rest, and two months is even better.

You can also try other brewing methods — the omni roast leaves room to experiment.

Use a precise grinder and adjust to the cup. Each coffee may need a different setting.

Making coffee is an art at every stage. At the final stage, we collaborate with an artist on an original oil painting that subtly shares this coffee’s story. Its print on your bag is a small collectible; a share of every bag returns to the artist’s studio.

Frog Facts

  • 72h macerated natural — The whole cherries rest in a sealed, temperature-controlled ferment before drying — slower, deeper fruit and more complexity in the cup.
  • Needs a month to open up — two even better
  • Grown at 1550 masl.
  • A print of an original oil painting — a small collectible, with a share of every bag returning to the artist.

Only coffee that passes goes into bags. Batches that fall short are still good coffee — they go to NGOs and social organisations instead of the bin. How we check
