Myanmar - Ngu Shwe Li

About This Coffee

This coffee is from Myanmar, specifically from the Shan region at Ngu Shwe Li Estate located at 1,073 meters altitude. Produced by Kyaw Sein, this is a natural processed coffee from the 2021/2022 crop. The varieties are SL-34 and S795, grown on approximately 200 acres with dense shade from silver oak, macadamia, and avocado trees. The SL-34 is a typical Kenyan variety producing high yields with superb quality, while S795, common from Indonesia, brings syrupy notes to the cup. Flavor notes include red tea, caramel, and fruity characteristics with a dense body.

Hola Coffee

Pablo Caballero and Nolo Botana had already built a track record in coffee when they launched Hola in 2016. The pair poured their accumulated experience into an operation built around quality, accessibility, and inclusivity. Coffee is roasted daily in small batches at the Sepulveda roastery in Madrid, ensuring beans are never more than a few days old at the point of sale. Their Lagasca location earned the number 12 spot on The World's 100 Best Coffee Shops 2025. Hola also runs an academy offering both its own certification and internationally recognized SCA credentials, alongside a podcast that has become a key part of the project. Seasonal coffees rotate through washed, natural, and experimental processes, producing a range from chocolatey depth to floral brightness.
