Edgardo Tinoco is the named producer of this debut El Portillo harvest in Santa Bárbara, Honduras. Only the exact-release description and specification panel were used because the page's long Farmlevel Story is unrelated Colombia copy.
Verve Coffee Roasters is an independent specialty roaster founded in Santa Cruz, California, in 2007.
This is the documented first harvest from Edgardo Tinoco's El Portillo farm, while the profile also preserves a serious source contradiction instead of importing unrelated ARGCAFEE claims.
WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?
Verve identifies this as the first harvest from Edgardo Tinoco’s new El Portillo farm.
The lot is a Parainema separation grown across 1,550–1,800 meters.
The coffee was processed as a natural, with the fruit left on the seed through drying; Verve does not publish the precise fermentation or drying schedule.
Verve classifies the finished coffee as a light roast.
Nothing is disclosed as added during processing.
No fruit, spices or post-roast flavoring are disclosed; the published fruit names are tasting descriptors.
Natural processing can intensify fruit character, but this release’s exact fermentation and drying controls remain unpublished.
Tangerine, hibiscus and pink guava, according to Verve.

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.
What the internet is saying about this coffee

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.
