Toca, Espresso aus Mexiko

About This Coffee

This espresso comes from Sierra de Zongolica, Veracruz, Mexico, produced by the Citlal Kaffen Cooperative. The coffee features Guernica, Typica, Bourbon, and Catimor varieties. It is processed as washed coffee, depulped, water-fermented, and washed. The flavor profile includes dark chocolate, candy sugar, and citrus notes. The coffee is grown in a region frequently covered by rain clouds from the Atlantic, creating cool conditions that allow slow ripening, contributing to its complexity, citrus-delicate acidity, and high sweetness. It has a medium to high body with a soft texture from careful cherry selection. The coffee is roasted for 15 minutes with a development time of 15%.

Kaffeemacher

Kaffeemacher was founded in Basel in 2009 by Benjamin Hohlmann, growing out of his work managing Unternehmen Mitte, one of Switzerland's largest coffee houses. The operation began roasting commercially in 2017 after years of developing a clear roasting philosophy, and today encompasses a roastery in the Gundeli district, a Coffee Academy with over 8,000 course participants, award winning cafes, and a mobile coffee bar. Benjamin holds SCA trainer certification and lectures on coffee at ZHAW Wädenswil. The team co owns Finca Santa Rita, a coffee farm in northern Nicaragua, and sources from partner farms in ten countries through long term relationships. Kaffeemacher swept four of the top five places at the 2024 Swiss Roasting Championships, with all roasters on the team having learned their craft in house. Transparency runs deep: the company publishes a Common Good Balance Sheet and is a signatory to The Pledge for transparent green coffee buying.
