Official location information (opens in a new tab)Coffee details
The countries and regions where the coffee grew. A region is a more local geographic description within an origin. Place names offer context but do not prove a particular flavor or identify a cultivar.
This detail is not available in the roaster’s listing.
The coffee fruit is removed before the seeds dry. Remaining sticky fruit material is removed through fermentation and washing or mechanical methods. “Washed” describes preparation, not a higher cleanliness or quality grade.
Typical taste: Often bright and clearly defined, with noticeable acidity and a lighter body.
Results also depend on growing conditions, roasting, and brewing.
A darker roast with more developed roasting character. It does not automatically contain more caffeine.
Typical taste: Often more bitter and less acidic than lighter roasts.
Results also depend on growing conditions, roasting, and brewing.
The listing does not clearly identify a single origin or blend. We leave the classification open instead of inferring it from the coffee’s name or number of tasting notes.
This detail is not available in the roaster’s listing.
Named types or selections of coffee plants. Plant identity is separate from origin and processing. A broad species name does not identify a specific cultivar.

Catalog provenance
We last checked this listing on September 17, 2026. First discovery records when we found a coffee; it is not a release date. The roaster's website is the final source of truth.
A Sarchimor cultivar selected in Nicaragua from Villa Sarchí and Timor Hybrid parentage. It was developed with resistance to coffee leaf rust in mind. This plant identity is separate from the processing method shown for an individual coffee.
Typical taste: Often shows pronounced acidity.
Results also depend on growing conditions, roasting, and brewing.
Castillo is a named cultivar developed for Colombian coffee production. Cenicafé includes it among improved, disease-resistant planting options. That breeding role is separate from cup flavor; it does not tell us how a particular lot was processed or roasted.
A cultivar developed by Cenicafé from Caturra and Timor Hybrid material and released in 1982. This explanation concerns the explicitly identified plant variety. Coffee merely grown in the country Colombia is not automatically this cultivar.
The available listing does not establish whether the coffee is decaffeinated. Missing information should not be treated as either decaf or regular coffee.
This detail is not available in the roaster’s listing.
The person, family, cooperative, or organization credited with producing the coffee. This label does not provide a biography or establish who performed every production step.
This detail is not available in the roaster’s listing.

This detail is not available in the roaster’s listing.
When the coffee cherries were picked, rather than when the beans were roasted. A listed season can span calendar years; missing dates should not be guessed.
