About This Coffee

This washed anaerobic coffee is from producer Jeimy Aguilar's Finca El Guayabo in San Juanillo, Honduras. The coffee is full-bodied and complex with flavor notes of pistachio cake, pastries, dried fruit, chocolate-hazelnut wafer, and honey. Cherries are harvested at peak ripeness and undergo a 65-hour anaerobic fermentation in plastic bags before being depulped. This is followed by 35 hours of dry anaerobic fermentation in plastic bags and tiled tanks. Beans are dried on raised African beds in a solar dryer covered with plastic for 25 to 30 days.

Yamabiko

This Toronto based Yamabiko Coffee Roasters takes its name from the Japanese word for "echo" or "mountain reverberation" and applies Japanese precision to every aspect of its specialty roasting. They use a Japanese Fuji Royal roaster for light profiles that emphasize clarity and delicate flavors, sourcing single origins from Ethiopia, Kenya, Colombia, Guatemala, Panama, and even Japan through specialty importers. The operation is primarily wholesale focused, supplying select Toronto specialty cafes, with limited production that prioritizes quality over volume. Intimate cuppings and Japanese style coffee ceremonies replace the typical roastery events, reflecting a philosophy where reverence and attention to detail define the craft. A carefully curated subscription delivers monthly selections to those who appreciate the quieter, more contemplative side of specialty coffee.
