Description from Passion House Coffee:

"At Passion House we are constantly on the hunt for beautiful coffees, stopping at nothing to get our hands on the best beans we can find. TECHNICAL: Country: Mexico Tasting Notes: Cherry Cordial, Black Tea, Praline Region: Oaxaca Processing: Washed Farm/Mill: La Mixteca Variety: Bourbon & Typica Farmer: Multiple Altitude: 1,450-1,800 masl Name Inspiration: Ween Component(s): "100% washed process Latin America" Roast Profile: medium/dark light Brand: classic, throwback, easygoing MUSIC INSPIRATION: ORIGIN STORY Oaxaca is an enigma in many ways but also can produce some of the very best cups in the country. Production here is still overwhelmingly driven by original lines of Bourbon and Typica, including the unique Pluma variety in the southern coastal mountains of the region. With 16 distinct indigenous groups/cultures alone, many of which grow coffee, Oaxaca is incredibly diverse from an environmental, climatic, and social perspective. There are so many logistical and cost- of-production challenges here, but that’s exactly what excites and drives us to get better and bring these lots to more of our roasting clients and their end consumers. These are vibrant, delicious, sweet, sessionable coffees that seem to disappear from your cup because they go down so easily. Garra de Jaguar is a community coffee from La Mixteca, a cultural region and home to the Mixtec people, one of Mexico’s largest indigenous groups. La Mixteca touches three Mexican states – the western half of Oaxaca and small parts of Guerrero and Puebla. This lot features coffee from smallholder farmers working an average of 1-2 hectares of land (1 hectare is about the size of a football field). We sourced this coffee through our partner Red Fox merchants. They source this, and other great Mexican coffees from their Mexican home base/lab in Oaxaca City. They put in a massive amount of work building relationships with producers, analyzing samples, and building high quality lots like this one."
