The Magic of Plants!
Plants at 787 Coffee
At 787 Coffee, we don't just treat our plants as decor, but as a part of our family. We take care of them with love and water them regularly. Plants are a nice way to be part of our daily lives and see them grow each day. Every morning our baristas open, and they can be surprised to find a new leaf or a new flower.
In order to see growth we must be consistent like in any area of our lives. To keep our plants healthy and happy, we discovered that consistency is key too. That's why we water them every Tuesday and Friday. You might ask, Why Tuesdays and Fridays? We chose these days because after giving them all the love and attention possible we found that this schedule keeps them perfectly hydrated without overwatering, ensuring that they're always at their best. Plus, these days provide enough time for the soil to dry out just a touch, which is crucial for preventing root rot and other water-related issues.
The Magic About Watering Plants
Watering plants can be relaxing for our caffeinated baristas. It's a wonderful way for them to step out from behind the bar, take a moment to relax, and connect with our coffee shop and our plants. Life can be hectic, and all humans need a moment of relaxation to keep going. Being around plants can reduce stress and calm you down. Whether you are a plant lover or not, watering plants is a simple and relaxing task that reminds us to slow down and appreciate the natural beauty around us. And for our lovely plants, it’s like getting two guaranteed days of watering each week, keeping them happy and healthy
At 787 Coffee, we are making small efforts to help our planet by planting flowers and plants and watering them every Tuesday and Friday. Plants also help us clean the air in the spaces we are in. They act as natural air filters improving the air quality of our coffee shops. As caffeinated humans we are trying to keep our planet clean and make it better with the smallest actions we take, to keep enjoying the natural beauty Earth has given us!

This is the cup that started everything.
The 787 Coffee Supremo Roast is our signature
single-origin specialty coffee — grown at
Hacienda Iluminada, our family-owned farm in
Maricao, Puerto Rico, at 3,000 feet above sea
level in the island's central mountain range.
Handpicked at peak ripeness. Honey processed
on the farm. Roasted fresh in small batches.
Shipped directly to your door.
TASTING NOTES:
Buttery caramel — from the honey processing
method that leaves natural sweetness in every
bean. Dark chocolate — from the high-altitude
growing conditions that slow the cherry's
development and concentrate flavor. Bright
citrus finish — clean, clear, and completely
unforgettable.
THE HONEY PROCESS DIFFERENCE:
Most coffee is washed. Some is natural
processed. 787 Coffee's Supremo Roast is
honey processed — a labor-intensive method
where the outer skin of the cherry is removed
but the sweet mucilage layer is left on the
bean as it sun-dries at Hacienda Iluminada.
The sugars absorb into the bean. The sweetness
becomes part of the coffee itself. You taste
it in every cup.

Iluminada. One farm. Full traceability.
