The coffee story

Marta is a third generation coffee farmer who inherited two farms when her father Hernando Arcila passed away 20 years ago. For many years her focus was on producing high yields but since 2019 she enrolled in our single state program in search of producing high quality coffee in volumes. After two years of hard work Marta is ready to offer the world a high-quality coffee with two harvest per year and the intention of searching for a long term relationship. 

The process

This coffee is part of the new Program monitored by Cofinet, this process involves fermenting in cherry inside grain pro bags for 48 hours, as temperature in Armenia is quite high grain pro bags are placed in water tanks to reduce the temperature, this allows a more controlled fermentation. Coffee then is pulped and and placed in raised beds 18 days until it reaches ideal moisture content of 11% was achieved.

FAQ

Shipping
Once the ordering period ends we will consolidate all coffees in a shared container. During transport, your coffee is fully insured. We will keep you informed about the shipment status.

Upon arrival of the coffee at the warehouse, you can choose between 2 delivery modes:

  • Doorstep delivery: We will take care of transport to your roastery. We will provide your coffee fully insured until it is ready for unloading from the truck at your roastery.
  • EXW (ex. warehouse) means that we will provide the coffee ready for pick-up at the terminal of the warehouse. You are responsible for organising transport and insurance from the warehouse to your roastery.

Currently, we can deliver coffee anywhere in Europe, except Hungary. For all European buyers, the coffee will be provided custom cleared in any case. Roasters in Switzerland choosing EXW will be responsible for customs clearance.

Currencies
When calculating price, you can select your preferred currency: USD, CHF, EUR, or GBP.

2 payment methods are accepted on Algrano:

Pay your coffee after its delivered in Europe. This option generates an additional fee, displayed in the shopping cart.
