Los Nogales is a very special and exclusive farm; it was the first farm that the Salaverria bought and it is where Jose Antonio Salaverria, the owner and producer grew up. Picked when fully ripe, cherries are ‘depulped’ loosely, with only 1% of mucilage removed. The beans are then loaded into jute bags to be transported to the drying tables to prevent any loss of mucilage or any washing away of the sugars as can happen in transportation. The raised beds are shaded and beans rest on them for 2 days with minimal movement before being switched to sunlight (still on raised beds) where they dry for 20-25 days depending on the weather.
All of our coffees are sustainably and ethically sourced from the world's best farms, and individually roasted in small batches, resulting in a beautifully crafted cup of coffee.
