From the producer

Irene Herrera Cabrera and Milciades Minga are members of the Gallito de las Rocas farmer organization. Intelligentsia describes their farm as lying in a fold of the rugged Peruvian Andes, accessible by a long walk from the nearest road.

From the roaster

Intelligentsia lists this as a single-origin espresso with a caramel and stone-fruit flavor profile.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

The exact release names both producers and their farmer organization, offering uncommon producer-level credit for a remote Andean espresso even though the farm name, precise region, cultivar and altitude remain undisclosed.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

Identity checked

Matched the exact product to Irene Herrera Cabrera and Milciades Minga and the Gallito de las Rocas organization.

Process bounded

Connected the existing Natural process from an exact archived catalog while documenting that the roaster page omits process details.

Commercial details verified

Confirmed the $21 price, 12 oz package, sold-out status and espresso recipe.

Sentiment separated

Excluded Cherrybook’s evidence index and retained zero qualifying rating sources.

What was added?

Verified producer pair, organization, remote Andean context, natural-process catalog classification, package, price, availability and espresso recipe.

What wasn't added?

No invented farm, precise region, cultivar, elevation, harvest date, detailed process, public rating or house score.

Why it matters

The profile now credits the named producers while preserving uncertainty around the lot’s geography and production details.

What you might taste

Roaster-listed caramel and stone fruit; exact archived catalogs also record nectarine, maraschino cherry and clementine.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

Research complete — no qualifying reviews yet

Our research pipeline scanned public reviews, videos, forums and discussions for this coffee (last pass 2026-10-30) and found no independent review of this exact release that meets our verification standards. When qualifying sources appear, they'll be published here.

What we found

Beans with Beanie is an exact-release catalog snapshot but reports no ratings or written reviews. Cherrybook is catalog evidence, not an independent tasting review. Non-exact, seller, directory, different-release and producer-only sources were excluded.

Same coffee, different roaster?

Other roasters, same producer.

These coffees come from the same producer or farm, offered by other roasters. We never automatically declare two offerings the exact same coffee — a match requires lot, harvest and traceability details. Even a true same-lot pair can taste different: roast approach, freshness, rest and brewing all reshape the cup.
