Coffee

Central Ninth has been crafted to deliver a delightful taste when used for espresso. Making it an excellent choice for espresso-based drinks. 

The first component is a regional blend from smallholder producers in Huehuetenango, Guatemala, who collaborate with La Central de Café and Primavera Coffee Importers. These producers typically have smaller yields and face challenges selling their coffee as individual microlots. By combining their coffees into a regional blend, they are able to secure better prices. The increased income enables them to reinvest in their farms and wet mills, ultimately improving the quality of their coffee over time.

The second component features coffee from La Virgen Estate, located in the Matagalpa region of Nicaragua. La Virgen was founded in 2012 by Claudia Vanessa Rivera and her husband. The estate manages every step of production, including both wet and dry milling. Their strong focus on quality control throughout the entire process has significantly increased their output, growing from just 53 bags in its early years to 575 bags annually.

The third component is a naturally processed Ethiopia from smallholder producers in the Bensa district. The coffee cherries are carefully processed at the washing station, undergoing density sorting and meticulous hand sorting on the drying tables.
