A CROWN JEWEL OF SANTA BÁRBARA COFFEES
Madcap has had the honor of being Juan Angel’s sole buyer since 2014, something we were eager to establish after meeting him and seeing his dedication to producing quality coffee. Juan has a small team, including family, helping pick ripe cherries on his roughly 8 acre plot of land, often making three total passes to ensure they are harvesting as much cherry as they can. Once it is time for processing, the cherries are pulped, and left in tanks for 16 hours to dry ferment. After being washed, the coffee is transferred to raised beds to dry for around 10-15 days.
Surrounded by some of the most revered coffee farms in Santa Bárbara, Juan stands tall among his peers. In his coffee, expect a clean cup with balanced acidity and sweetness, with notes of hibiscus, nectarine, and lime.
