About This Coffee

A single-origin coffee from Finca San José, owned by Alejandro Martinez Anaya, located near Coatepec in the Veracruz region of Mexico at 1,200 meters altitude. The coffee features the Anacafe 14 variety — a naturally occurring cross between Pacamara and a Catimor type. It is processed using a washed method with an 18-hour whole-cherry fermentation, followed by pulping, washing, and an extended 32-day drying period under a "Casa Elba" roof structure. Flavor notes include almond, red plum, and cane sugar, with a full body, balanced sweetness, and subtle acidity.

Kaffeekirsche

Kaffeekirsche was founded in 2014 in Berlin Kreuzberg near Adalbertsrasse, beginning a journey that has seen the roastery move and expand multiple times as demand grew. In 2017 the operation relocated to Böckhstrasse alongside a new cafe and bakery, and by February 2022 the main roastery had settled in Tempelhof with an attached cafe, bringing the total to three Berlin locations. All coffee is drum roasted daily, with a focus on single origin Arabica beans sourced from origins including Colombia, where Pink Bourbon from the Cauca region is among the standout lots. Their omni roast philosophy means each coffee is developed to perform across both espresso and filter brewing methods. Signature roasts like the Dark Side Espresso and Gran Galope, known for its full body and lingering sweetness, showcase the range and ambition of their roasting program.
