Carbon negative coffee



For the fifth year running, we're proud to highlight the hard work and dedication of our direct trade partners, the family behind Finca Jazmín. This is a true specialty coffee success story, as Nancy, Arthur, and their daughter Jillian now handle every step of the process from growing and milling to roasting and brewing at their own cafés in Marcala.

This Angelical lot named after and tendered to by Nancy’s daughter Jillian is a washed Pacas variety, a natural mutation of Bourbon that is prized for its dwarf size. This unique trait allows for higher density planting, leading to greater yields without compromising the coffee's exceptional quality.

We find this classic Honduran cup to be full of notes of juicy orange, nectarine and fudge like sweetness.

Richard W. ★★★★★

The washed Pacas process brings out a sweetness that lingers long after each sip, and the clean cup makes it easy to drink black. I brewed a batch the morning it arrived and finished the bag in under a week.

Ava ★★★★★

The altitude here at 1,600 meters really shows—the cup is bright and juicy, way more complex than I expected from a washed coffee. I brewed it as a pour-over and the sweetness came through perfectly.

Harper ★★★★★

Brewed this as a pour-over this morning and the washed process gives it such a clean, bright cup—the altitude really comes through in the acidity. Pacas is a cultivar I don't see often, and here it's handled beautifully. Easily one of the most memorable bags I've had this year.
