The name “embrujo” comes from the Spanish word for “spell”. Ignacio believes that truly excellent speciality coffee will evoke the “magic of coffee” for drinkers. This delicious Mr. Hat Natural from Eje Cafetero is indeed a magical experience and we think you’ll enjoy it for its notes of tangy passion fruit, cacao liquor and yellow fruits.

Ignacio Rodriguez’s father purchased the first 12 hectares of Finca La Palmera over 50 years ago. Through tireless work, he continued expanding the farm, which reached 170 hectares by the time Ignacio inherited it. Today, Ignacio applies the same spirited focus to producing specialty-quality coffees.

The name “embrujo” comes from the Spanish word for “spell”. Ignacio believes that truly excellent speciality coffee will evoke the “magic of coffee” for drinkers. To this end, he is focused on transitioning from traditional agriculture to a more speciality focus. Ignacio is building a laboratory and microbiology lab to help him better understand the process at the biological level and ultimately improve his processing for consistency and flavour.

Ignacio employs 48 women year-round. These women, many of whom are single mothers supporting their families, ensure high quality by sorting cherries and parchment to remove any defective beans.

Mr. Tinto is a profile-driven blend. Processing has been designed to achieve these flavour profiles.
