Marvin bought his first parcel of land in this area in 1990. Over the decades they added to their holdings with various parcels of land as the business became more and more profitable. Over the years he has improved the farm practices, replanted some of the older trees, and implemented a system of shade management to improve the farm. Now, he operates a wet mill in addition to Finca Las Brisas.
On espresso: Expect macadamia and malic acidity. Green grapes, full bodied and a chocolate finish.
On filter: Nutty, milk chocolate and beautiful apple notes. A profile that tastes like a cup you want to wake up with everyday.
It’s a classic coffee on filter that you don’t drink from a tiny delicate porcelain cup, but a coffee that deserves a full mug. And another. And another.
