What Roost says about this coffee
FARM: San Jose
REGION: Coatepec, Veracruz
PROCESS: Washed
VARIETY: Anacafe 14
ALTITUDE GROWN: 1200m
NOTES: Green Grape, Jammy Lime & Burnt Sugar
Alejandro Martinez Anaya owns a 250-hectare farm called San Jose, where he has 60 hectares planted with Anacafe 14 among other coffee varieties. On Alejandro’s farm, the coffee is picked ripe and fermented in its cherries, for about 18 hours. It’s depulped the following day and washed before being set to dry in a casa elba (rooftop drying structure) for 32 days.
Veracruz is situated on the gulf, with coastal plains rising steeply into the mountains. Coffee first came to Mexico by way of the Spanish and was planted in Veracruz. Coffee has been part of the culture of this region since, and in recent years, we’ve noticed the development of rust-resistant hybrids being grown around the town of Cotapec. These small community producers are adapting to the challenges of the past decade, and the quality coming out of this region leads us to believe this is Mexico’s premier region for specialty coffees.

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.

These are claims the roaster makes about its business, not about this coffee, and we have not checked them against any register.
