This captivating dark roast blend combines two Central American coffees that are incredible on their own: the Costa Rica Rosa Aura and Mexico Las Cotorras. The Rosa Aura gives us heady winter spices and apple cider, while the Mexican coffee provides a solid, chocolatey base.

Rosa Aura Navarro Monestel
Doña Rosa Aura runs this family farm along with her husband, Carlos Ramírez Martínez. The farm’s name, Amalieth, comes from the names of their mothers Amalia and Elieth, to honor their legacy. The farm was founded 23 years ago, and now the entire family is involved in all stages of coffee production, taking care of and preserving the surrounding flora and fauna.

The land is 80% planted with coffee, and the family is constantly innovating and introducing new technologies that allow for the improvement and maintenance of the coffee farm - such as the micromill they built. They also apply family traditions passed down from generation to generation.

The family grows, harvests and processes their coffee according to strict environmental standards. According to Marycruz Navarro (daughter) and Rosa Aura Navarro (mom), "As we do natural process, we are 100% environmentally friendly since there is no water contamination generated, and the residues produced by the peeling process are used partly as fertilizer for our coffee plantations. As part of our commitment to the environment, we have received training courses such as Care Training, Care Trade by Bean Voyage, and Good Agricultural Practices course provided by the State Phytosanitary Service. We are a certified farm in the AAA and Rainforest Alliance programs, so we take care of and preserve the surrounding flora and fauna. We use rainwater for irrigation and do not use herbicides. Instead, we cut the weeds with a knife and a weed cutter to maintain green cover. Regarding fertilizers, we apply the technique of 3 washes to generate the least possible contamination."

The Ramizez/Navarro family describes themselves as a team driven by passion and love for coffee. Follow them on Instagram @amaliethcoffee !

Las Cotorras
Grown by Rogelia Angel & Dario Roblero, two small-scale producers in the highlands of Chiapas near the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve, this coffee gets its name from the cotorras birds that nest in coffee growing areas, and have become a symbol of authenticity and freedom in the region. El Triunfo contains the very last of the Central American cloud forests, where naturally occurring condensation is trapped by the forest, giving life to a large number of plant and animal species.
