Las Brumas Anaerobic Washed Pacamara is produced by our longtime friend Ernesto Menéndez. This year, we decided to release both the natural and the washed process variants at the same time, as well as a honey SL28 and a Gesha to give you a special opportunity to try lots of great coffees from one farm side by side.

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
