PROCESSING
The base is a classic washed, just as the lord commanded. Depulping, washing, a moment of fermentation in the tank and drying in the ideal conditions of the Marcal region.
THE FARM
Catuai from El Puente is a grain-archetype. A clean, sweet, simple caramel brew with notes of red fruit and a citrus stamp in the background. From a legend among producers, the world-famous Marysabel Caballero. This one doesn't even need a special introduction! It is impossible to go wrong here.
ROASTER'S COMMENT
It is impossible to drink the same blend twice. Heraclitus knew this, and we believe the guy. However, he had no way of grasping the fact that life is like the helium-6 isotope - a wildly unstable joke of the universe. We know that, and that's how Elixir came to be! Insanely unstable, always sweet. Every time different, every time fruity as hell. We dump the best coffees in it, because who can say no? Take a sip of Elixir and feel like... whatever you want!
PACKAGING
The coffee is packed in a brown jar made of PET, 100% recyclable or reusable. In case you're thinking "oh no, plastic!", bear in mind that standard coffee packaging is also made of plastic (and a few other materials, making it often harder to recycle). We also thought about glass, but it's heavier, more expensive, breakable and, wait for it, has the same or greater (sic!) environmental impact! A plastic jar turns out to be pretty eco-friendly, just remember to put it in the right container, or find a creative way to reuse it at home.
