Hoppenworth & Ploch

About This Coffee

A single-origin coffee from Colombia, produced by Argemiro Hernandez on his 35-hectare farm in 2019. The harvest of 1,500 kg was sorted multiple times — during picking, during washing, and after drying — to ensure a clean cup. Beans are dried on movable rooftops (Elbas) surrounded by tunnels to prevent excess moisture at night. The variety is Typica, processed using the washed method. Flavor notes include rose and chocolate.

Hoppenworth & Ploch

Hoppenworth & Ploch started as a campus café at Frankfurt University in 2008 and has since grown into one of the city's most respected specialty coffee roasteries. Co-founders Matthias Hoppenworth and Julian Ploch have been roasting on a Giesen W30A in their Sachsenhausen roastery since 2019, with a strong focus on light roasts that reveal the full complexity of each origin. They were named Roaster of the Year 2021 by Crema Magazine, and their team includes a German Roasting Master champion. Alongside their three Frankfurt cafés — including one in the beautifully reconstructed new Altstadt — they run popular barista courses and supply offices and restaurants. Their stated mission: pushing toward a fairer, friendlier, and more sustainable food and hospitality industry.
