Not stated by the roaster
Price not usable
Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.
No roaster can pay to change a figure or the order of a list; any paid placement is labelled Sponsored.
What Love Coffee says about this coffee
Antonio Medina has dreamed of becoming a coffee farmer since childhood. He began working on various coffee farms to gain experience and master the craft, eventually inheriting the farm from his father.
Initially, he cultivated basic grains like corn and beans, but in the early 1990s, he planted his first coffee trees and gradually expanded his coffee production. Medina chose to plant the demanding Pacamara variety, a decision that reflects his commitment to quality. This exceptional lot showcases the meticulous care and attention he dedicates to his work.
The cherries are hand-picked at peak maturity and depulped at the wet mill the same day. The coffee undergoes a 32-hour dry fermentation before being carefully washed and dried on the patio, where it is regularly turned to ensure even drying.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
Where each fact came from
Altitude, lowest
Altitude: 1700 meters above sea level… part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
A further 4 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
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.
