Cultivators:
HIGH MANCO is a coffee lovingly grown by Leopoldo Velita, Javier Soto, and Dante Lale. Their farms are nestled in the tranquil villages of Maria Teresa, Agua Fresca, Miraflores, and Gramazu, where coffee cherries flourish at elevations of 1600-1930 meters, bordering the breathtaking UNESCO Amazonian Biosphere Reserves.
Why Lounges Love It:
Like Manco Cápac, the first ruler and founder of the Inca civilization, emerging from the depths of Lake Titicaca, this cup promises discovery and unparalleled experience. This offering is suited for settings where the extraordinary is savored, and conversations flow with effortless grace, acting as a bridge to another world.
🔥 Roasting
A City+ roast is ideal to bring out the best in High Manco. This allows the spice notes (cinnamon/golden raisin) to shine, balanced by its mellow acidity.
💧 Brewing
Brewing with a French press or as a cold brew can accentuate its full body and creamy texture.
Espresso Suitability: The Caramel base and smooth body ensure a rich, velvety texture and a lingering sweetness that creates a satisfying, long finish in the cup.
Nitro Cold Brew: The inherent warm spice notes of Golden Raisin, Cinnamon, and Caramel are amplified by the nitro charge. The resulting cold brew is rich and clean, without being heavy.
These are just suggestions, and your personal preferences may vary. Experiment with different roast levels and brewing methods to discover what you enjoy most.
