The details

Origin story

  • In Season
  • Organic
  • Direct Trade
Daniel Canales was the first grower to ever win the top prize at a Cup of Excellence competition with an organic coffee — way back in 2004. We purchased some of that winning lot and have never stopped working with the Canales family, whose dual commitments to organic farming and quality-focused innovation haven't wavered. Today, those traditions are carried on by Daniel’s three boys, Milton, Norman, and Donal, the third generation of coffee growers at Los Delirios. This Pacamara varietal lot is the product of a father-and-son collaboration between Daniel and Milton, and it is making its appearance on our single-origin menu for the eighth consecutive season.

How To Brew

We recommend starting with a 1:18 coffee-to-water ratio, which provides an excellent total extraction level and maximizes flavor pulled out of the ground coffee. For our single origin coffees we recommend a pour over method either on a Chemex, V60 or Kalita Wave on a 5 or 6 grind setting if you are ordering from Intelligentsiacoffee.com.
