About the Farm
Where’s the machete at? Ovidio ‘Machete’ Gomez’ washed Parainema quickly became a standout coffee for us when we first tasted it three years ago. Since then, his Parainema trees have matured, increasing sweetness and flavor complexity.
Processing using the washed method has preserved the inherent crisp acidity of the Parainema variety, highlighting notes of grapefruit and white florals. We are getting ready for a big 2020 with Ovidio. Expect some exotic flavors to shoot out of Finca El Paraiso and into your cups!
Roasting days:
Proud Mary roast Monday-Friday during normal business hours. To ensure freshness of coffee, best to order early in the week as postal services and couriers do not operate on weekends.

Orders placed by 8.30am PST will be roasted and dispatched the same day. If you are ordering on a Friday, and order after 8.30am then your coffee will be roasted the following business day - Monday.
