San Jose Ocana was ranked the #2 coffee in the Guatemala Cup Of Excellence auction. Barefoot Coffee was able to partner with a select buying group to win 2 bags of the mind blowing #2 ranked coffee “San Jose Ocana†from Roberto Sanchez Lazo in the Guatemala Cup of Excellence auction. This is an amazingly fragrant and crystal clean coffee. This coffee received a 91.5 score from the cupping jury. Mouthwatering complex layers of powerfully sweet and bright fruit acidity with pronounced cheery and ripe apricot and toasted almonds. Dessert in your cup.
San Jose Ocana was founded in 1623. Five generations of the Lazo family have worked the farm. Barefoot is very excited to be able to offer this amazing coffee to our customers. We expect this coffee to arrive with in the next 2-3 weeks so stay tuned!
In San José Ocaña, owners promote good relations with workers. In fact, in the middle of last century, they donated land (about 5 CABALLERIAS) for people working in the farm and they founded there what is actually Santa Fe Ocaña county. Quality controls are important in the farm. Visual controls, as well as humidity, fermentation and drying process are part of a daily basis routine. Coffee is wet milled and sun dried in patios. The farm also has de-pulpers, a resettler and a pulp extractor. As all Guatemalan farms, San José Ocaña has beautiful natural resources and natural forests. It also has cows, horses and vegetables.
San José Ocaña is also awarded with Illy Café for its quality. Roberto Sánchez Lazo
