Francy Castillo

This coffee is an exclusive release for our World Cup Coffee Pop-Up, where we will be serving it exclusively as a pour-over at our event in Hamilton on Saturday, June 20th, during the match between the Netherlands and Sweden.

At the cupping table, this coffee stood out for its silky mouthfeel, balanced body, and exceptional sweetness. With only a limited quantity available, we're not sure how long it will remain in stock, but we hope you'll have the opportunity to experience it through our online store, our wholesale partners, or at the event itself.

This is a truly unique coffee and a special occasion for our community to come together over great coffee and great football. We look forward to sharing this wonderful experience with all of you.

Here is some more information about Francy Castillo and this coffee 

In 2017, Francy launched a carefully planned coffee farming project focused on sustainable cultivation practices. The project emphasized selecting quality seeds, preparing healthy soils, using cover crops and mulching to prevent erosion, and optimizing planting distances to support strong root and canopy development. Farm activities such as planting, fertilizing, and harvesting were carried out with the help of family and neighbors. The farm also minimizes the use of synthetic agrochemicals to maintain soil health, biodiversity, and long-term productivity.

For processing, only fully ripe Caturra and Colombia coffee cherries with Brix levels above 22° are harvested. The cherries are washed, sorted, and disinfected before undergoing a 48-hour anaerobic fermentation in Airlok-valve bins. After dry pulping and sieving, the coffee undergoes approximately 60 hours of waterless oxidation. The honey-processed coffee is then dried on patios for 17–23 days, followed by controlled sun-drying until moisture reaches 10–11%. Finally, the coffee is stored in Latinatech bags on pallets to preserve quality and stability.
