While hunting for a fruit-forward dry-processed coffee to last us through 2026, we stumbled upon Hacea down in Anaheim. We requested samples and after over caffeinating ourselves at the cupping table, this coffee stood out to us so much that we decided to buy the rest of last harvest's crop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlberto Guarda and his family has owned their coffee farm for over a century. They grow a unique varietal called Victoria 14, a hybrid resistant to disease. The ripe cherries are picked and dunked in water for ripeness separation. Next they are dried with the fruit intact on black tarps for 12 days. The coffee is then moved to the warehouse to dry for several days, and eventually goes through a mechanical dryer to achieve 10.5% humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee exhibits a ton of complexity - when warm we get jammy strawberry and milk chocolate, as it cools the acidity increases and reminds us of biting in a fresh green grape. Despite the fruitiness, we do feel there is a background note of mulling spices which helps to structure the overall cup. Does well in all brew methods but using it as a french press or iced pour over stood out to us the most - best enjoyed plain.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Woven Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 12 oz","offer_id":52261507694866,"sku":null,"price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 3 lb (Save 5%)","offer_id":52261507727634,"sku":null,"price":85.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse (French Press) \/ 12 oz","offer_id":52261507760402,"sku":null,"price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coarse (French Press) \/ 3 lb (Save 5%)","offer_id":52261507793170,"sku":null,"price":85.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium (Drip) \/ 12 oz","offer_id":52261507825938,"sku":null,"price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium (Drip) \/ 3 lb (Save 5%)","offer_id":52261507858706,"sku":null,"price":85.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine (Espresso) \/ 12 oz","offer_id":52261507891474,"sku":null,"price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine (Espresso) \/ 3 lb (Save 5%)","offer_id":52261507924242,"sku":null,"price":85.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/wovencoffeeroasters.com\/products\/hacienda-sonora","provider":"Woven Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
