From the producer

Arturo Paz is a trained agronomist and cupper from a family with more than 60 years in coffee around Peña Blanca. He manages six farms and built a wet mill at El Guaco.

From the roaster

Verve Coffee Roasters is a specialty coffee company that sources beans through its Farmlevel initiative, emphasizing direct relationships with farmers and high-quality, light-roasted single-origin coffees.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

A traceable washed Pacas from El Guaco that connects Arturo Paz's lot-separation work at San Vicente with processing infrastructure on his own farm.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Traceable farm lot

The release is kept connected to the existing El Guaco farm and Arturo Paz producer records.

02
Washed processing

Verve identifies the exact release as washed but does not publish fermentation or drying parameters.

03
Contradiction control

Copied sidebar claims for a different producer, cultivar, and elevation were excluded.

What was added?

Nothing is disclosed as added.

What wasn't added?

No fruit, flavoring, co-ferment ingredient, or inoculant is disclosed.

Why it matters

Keeping the narrative-supported fields separate from the conflicting sidebar preserves the release's traceability without inventing precision.

What you might taste

Pineapple, milk chocolate, and strawberry, as listed by Verve.

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 2026-10-25) 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

Non-exact, seller, directory, generic-roaster, different-release, duplicate, and older-release sources were excluded. No qualifying independent exact-release review remains.

Until then, meet the people behind it:

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.
