Café Mesa de los Santos is a single-origin Colombian whole bean coffee—medium roast, organic certified, shade-grown, and hand-picked—presented in a 16-ounce bag roasted at origin for freshness.
Grown on Hacienda El Roble in Mesa de los Santos and certified organic by CERES GmbH, this coffee highlights bright citrus notes, rounded chocolate-cocoa depth, and a delicate nutty finish. The beans are cultivated under shade to support biodiversity, harvested by hand for selective ripeness, and roasted locally to lock in aroma and flavor before shipping. The result is a versatile medium roast that works well across methods—from pour-over to espresso—and fits both everyday brewing and special-occasion cups.
What flavor profile should I expect from these beans?

Which brewing methods bring out the best in this medium roast?
This roast is versatile: pour-over and drip accentuate clarity and citrus brightness, while French press and espresso methods emphasize chocolate body and lingering sweetness. Grind size and water temperature let you tune the balance between acidity and body.
- Pour-over: highlights brightness and aromatic nuance
- Drip brewer: dependable, balanced cup for daily use
- French press: richer mouthfeel and deeper chocolate notes
- Espresso: concentrated chocolate-cocoa with clean finish
How should I store and measure the beans for optimal freshness?
Keep beans sealed in a cool, dark place away from heat and moisture; avoid the refrigerator. Use a scale for consistent results—about 15–18 grams of coffee per 250 ml (8 oz) of water is a good starting point, then adjust to taste.
- Storage: airtight container, away from light and heat
- Daily grind: grind just before brewing for peak aroma
- Brewing ratio: 15–18 g per 250 ml water to start
- Adjust: finer grind for more intensity, coarser for milder cup
