Bolivia Finca Genesis Marco Cabera Honey 250 g

Two coffees, one origin – both from the same harvest in Bolivia’s Taipiplaya region, but processed using different methods. This is a unique opportunity to taste coffee from a rarely seen Bolivian origin and explore how processing can shape flavour and texture. The honey-processed lot offers soft notes of yellow plum, biscuit, and toffee, creating a clean, mellow sweetness with a comforting, biscuity finish. Herbal tones – reminiscent of peppermint – bring a fresh, aromatic lift that carries through consistently from grind to brew. As the cup cools, subtle citrus hints emerge, adding a refreshing layer of complexity.

Taipiplaya is a small town in Bolivia’s Caranavi Province, nestled among the hills and forests of the Yungas. Coffee is grown at altitudes of 1500–1900 m.a.s.l. and harvested during the dry season, from May to October. This lot is a cooperative blend from 15 families, all members of ASOCAFE – an organisation comprising around 280 producers. After processing, the coffee is dried partly in the shade and partly in the sun, then transported to El Alto. There, in the cool, dry highland climate, it undergoes meticulous hand-sorting before export. While other crops like citrus, avocado, and passion fruit are grown in the region, coffee remains the primary source of income for the local community.
