Roaster notes

A knockout Typica lot from Los Nogales — a farm with history, heart, and serious attention to detail. Expect tropical fruit sweetness, vanilla notes and a silky milkshake-like texture that stood out on the cupping table for being both expressive and immaculately clean.

The Hernández family has spent generations refining their craft, blending traditional know-how with sharp scientific precision. This lot went through lactic fermentation (190 hours!) under the eye of Angie Hernández, who brings an industrial engineering edge to coffee processing. Washed, eco-friendly, and meticulously dried.

Flavour Notes: Banana, Vanilla Milkshake

AMOC Coffees are beautifully displayed and delivered in a lightweight, fully recyclable PET jar. This jar can be reused as you wish!

What is the roast recency?

We recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 8-12 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 12). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.

About this variety

Typica is often valued for a clean, elegant and sweet cup rather than heavy intensity. Floral, citrus and soft fruit notes can appear in carefully grown lots.

Why this one is different
  • Colombia
  • Pitalito, Huila
  • Washed

The reviewed Colombian Typicas are delicate and aromatic, with violet or raspberry leaf, white peach, pear, lychee and red grape, often finishing with a tea-like freshness. Washed processing keeps the profile clear, while honey processing adds softness and sweetness. A decaffeinated lot can still retain that floral, fruit-led character when handled carefully.

Washed processing can make acidity and variety character easier to read, although fermentation and drying choices still matter.

A little background

Typica is one of coffee's oldest widely travelled varieties and has a long history in Colombia. It is less productive than many modern alternatives, so today's single-variety Colombian lots are often small, high-grown selections where cup quality and producer care take priority.

Identification note This small reviewed set includes washed, honey and decaffeinated coffees. Their shared delicacy is useful context, but individual fruit notes and texture are also shaped by elevation and processing.

Classification Historic Arabica family

Technical lineage Typica belongs to the Typica-related Bourbon-Typica group and traces the historic route from Ethiopia through Yemen, India and Java before reaching the Americas.
