Mini Granja is a specialty coffee from the terroir of Marcala (La Paz department). It is a coffee with body, without bitterness with a slow and persistent attack, it remains very long in the mouth. We find fruity notes (grape, plum, raspberry), gourmet (Honey) and milky (fresh butter, melted butter).
IN THE MOUTH
IN THE MOUTH
Mini Granja is a balanced coffee with a strong character. It can be drunk preferably after a meal because its length in the mouth is very surprising, with a progressive attack.
There are notes of melted butter and plum.

THE STORY
THE STORY
The farm is a partner of Cafés Organicos Marcala, a private company that approaches coffee cultivation with a sustainability-based approach. The cooperative is focused on supporting producers who want to implement cutting-edge organic farming. Together, the cooperative and the farms are working on a cultural change from conventional to organic farming based on strong environmental values. The approximately 700 producers who make up this company regularly receive coffee tasting and organic farming courses. The cooperative also subsidizes the education of children in the community in order to benefit future generations.
FRESHLY ROASTED
FRESHLY ROASTED
Contrary to what we are sold in supermarkets, fresh roasting is essential to the expression of a terroir and a history, that of coffee which is a fruit above all.
The roasting date, we don't talk about it enough but it is very important!
Why? Because drinking “old” coffee is like drinking “dead” coffee devoid of all aromatic cells. The result in the cup will be disappointing. Oxygen tends to deteriorate the finest aromatic molecules in coffee, making it less delicate to taste. This is why it is better to drink your coffee quickly and to favor artisanally roasted coffees rather than industrial coffees. which are roasted and packaged way too long before you find them in your cup!
