This coffee is from Mexico, specifically from the Chiapas region in the Comunidad Azteca area near Tapachula. Produced by farmer Juan Verdugo at 1,900 meters above sea level, it features Bourbon and Caturra varieties. The coffee is washed processed and naturally sun-dried. It scores 85 points and offers tasting notes of candied pear, soft citrus, marzipan, and chocolate. Grown using organic and sustainable practices under shade trees on volcanic soils in the Sierra Madre de Chiapas.
Animal Coffee started as a small specialty coffee space in Barcelona's Sarria neighbourhood in 2015 and began roasting its own beans the following year. They work exclusively with 100% Arabica, using a light roasting approach adapted to each origin to draw out its characteristic notes. Roasting happens weekly to keep deliveries as fresh as possible. Beyond the roastery, they run a barista training centre offering courses from beginner to advanced levels, as well as consultancy for businesses setting up coffee operations. They supply roasted beans to offices and private customers across Spain.
