About This Coffee

The Entre Rios is a natural-processed microlot from the Aquiares Estate, one of Costa Rica's oldest and largest coffee farms, located near the Turrialba Volcano. The coffee features two Sarchimor-based varieties — Marsellesa and Red Obatá — both crosses of Timor Hybrid and Villa Sarchi. Processed as a natural using a controlled drying system with ceramic floors, raised beds, and mechanical finishing, it delivers a delicate sweetness with light body and flavors of raspberry, dried strawberry, and mountain herbs. Roasted as a filter coffee.

Hoppenworth & Ploch

Hoppenworth & Ploch started as a campus café at Frankfurt University in 2008 and has since grown into one of the city's most respected specialty coffee roasteries. Co-founders Matthias Hoppenworth and Julian Ploch have been roasting on a Giesen W30A in their Sachsenhausen roastery since 2019, with a strong focus on light roasts that reveal the full complexity of each origin. They were named Roaster of the Year 2021 by Crema Magazine, and their team includes a German Roasting Master champion. Alongside their three Frankfurt cafés — including one in the beautifully reconstructed new Altstadt — they run popular barista courses and supply offices and restaurants. Their stated mission: pushing toward a fairer, friendlier, and more sustainable food and hospitality industry.
