More information

Overview

A careful honey process at Hacienda Las Mercedes gives Silver its signature character: mucilage left on the bean during sun-drying feeds it with natural sugars, creating a smooth, exotic and creamy cup unlike any conventional coffee.

  • Bag: 240 g (8.5 oz) whole bean, vacuum-sealed with one-way valve.

Why buy whole bean?

Silver's coconut and vanilla notes live in its volatile aromatics — exactly what grinding too early destroys. Whole bean protects them:

  • Tropical aromatics sealed in the bean until you grind.
  • Choose your grind: espresso-fine to press-coarse.
  • Fresh up to 60 days after opening the bag.
  • A creamier, sweeter, more aromatic cup.

Grind guide by method
  • Espresso / moka pot: fine (table-salt consistency).
  • V60 / Chemex / AeroPress / drip: medium (coarse salt).
  • French press / cold brew: coarse (sea salt).

Brewing recommendations
  • Ratio: 1:16.5 — about 60 g of coffee per liter of water.
  • Water temperature: 195–205 °F.
  • Best methods: V60 or Chemex for clarity; espresso for a naturally sweet, dessert-like shot.
  • Storage: airtight, opaque container — never the refrigerator.

How we brew it

Our brew recommendation

V60 or Chemex for clarity of the tropical notes. As espresso, it makes a dessert-like shot and a naturally sweet latte.

Where it grows

One family. One hillside.

Every lot is picked at Hacienda Las Mercedes, our family farm in the Farallones del Citará. The cherries are hand-selected at peak ripeness, then dried slowly on raised beds — the patience is what builds that sweetness in the cup.
