Mama Mina is a Red Pacamara lot from Finca Mierisch in Matagalpa, Nicaragua (1,315–1,400 masl). The coffee is depulped, dry-fermented 36 hours, washed, and dried on patios and raised beds. Expect a silky, layered medium roast with tasting notes of red apple, vanilla, and macadamia.
Methodical Coffee was launched in Greenville, South Carolina, in 2015 by a trio of friends David, Will, and Marco. They managed to blend Will’s background running a mobile coffee cart with Marco’s product design skills to build a brand that looks super elegant but feels totally warm and welcoming. Their roasting style is all about clarity and sweetness; they generally avoid the super-dark stuff in favor of clean, vibrant profiles that are easy to drink every single day. The packaging is famously beautiful, patterned and floral. It feels like the ultimate Southern hospitality take on specialty coffee.
