Nomen Nescio is an unknown variety that we found growing at Finca El Salvador. It does not get leaf rust. We are putting it in our Hybrida plant breeding program.

We think it is a variety that works great with long fermentations.

V60 — 1:16.5, 3:15, medium grind at 93 °C. Origami — 1:16, 3:20, Kasuya-style pulses. AeroPress — 13 g : 200 g, 2:30, long steep and a gentle press.

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

  • 120h 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 1500 to 1600 masl.
  • A print of an original oil painting — a small collectible, with a share of every bag returning to the artist.

Cup-checked before it ships.

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
