Verve says Juan Benitez and his brother operate neighboring farms in Cielito, where continued investment in fermentation infrastructure has improved capacity and consistency.
Verve describes this 3/10 light roast as sweet, dense, smooth and honeyed, with yellow plum, honey and candied orange.
A long-running producer relationship featuring washed Pacas from Santa Bárbara, with dry fermentation and raised-bed drying documented by the roaster.

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

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.
