From the producer

Edin Baide and Nelson Baide produced the two Parainema component lots. Verve identifies Edin as Maria Baide’s brother and Nelson as her nephew; their coffees were processed and repeatedly selected at Benjamin Paz’s Beneficio San Vicente.

From the roaster

Verve Coffee Roasters describes this single origin selection as a layered delight featuring notes of blackberry, grapefruit, and baking chocolate.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

The archived Baide coffee documents a family-linked two-producer blend built from Edin and Nelson Baide’s separately grown Parainema lots. It is distinct from Verve’s archived Maria Baide product, which shares those component producers but has a different product page, price, tasting profile, and brew recipes.

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.

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.
