From the producer

Roger Antonio Domínguez Márquez inherited Finca San Francisco, La Cueva, and Las Flores from his father. Each parcel is about four hectares near Marcala. San Francisco grows Bourbon, Caturra, Catuaí, Gesha, and Parainema; this exact Partners lot is Red Bourbon.

From the roaster

Partners Coffee is a Brooklyn-based specialty roaster that has maintained a long-term relationship with producer Roger Domínguez. They prioritize his natural-processed red bourbon lots for their vibrant, jammy, and fruity flavor profiles.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

Partners says Café Imports connected it with Roger Domínguez eight years ago and calls San Francisco one of its most anticipated annual releases. This exact lot is a single-farm natural Red Bourbon dried on shaded raised-mesh platforms.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Harvest selection

Ripe Red Bourbon cherries are picked at Finca San Francisco.

02
Whole-cherry drying

Fully intact cherries are spread in thin layers on shaded raised-mesh platforms and turned frequently for even drying.

03
Dry milling

After roughly two to six weeks of weather-dependent drying, a local dry mill removes the dried fruit husk.

What was added?

Nothing is described as added to the coffee.

What wasn't added?

No fruit, flavoring, or inoculated culture is disclosed.

Why it matters

Partners associates fruit-on drying with the release’s syrupy body and intense fruit character.

What you might taste

Strawberry, raspberry, rhubarb preserves, candied lemon, brown sugar, and dark chocolate.

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

What the internet is saying
WE FOUND 72 RELEVANT PUBLIC SOURCES

AI-synthesized from publicly available information retrieved 2026-11-12. This is research, not our original tasting review.

0 of 72 sources discuss this exact coffee. The rest provide context about the farm, producer, variety or roaster — and are labeled "Context" below. Shop reports 4.9/5 across 71 product-name ratings, but the visible reviews are dated November–December 2025 and therefore concern the preceding annual release, not the October 2026 crop. Bon Appétit’s 2026 subscription test confirms a Honduras San Francisco bag roasted three days before arrival, but does not clearly identify the October 2026 release or provide a cup score. Partners’ 96 seller-hosted ratings, Coffee Roast’s zero-rating listing, directories, and older annual releases were excluded. No numeric public score was calculated.
Context from the roaster, farm or producer

No defensible independent numeric sentiment was found for the October 2026 release.
