The Story Behind Specialty Coffee


The Secret Behind Specialty Coffee

Unlike commercial coffee that comes from various sources, specialty coffee is single-origin, which means each coffee bean comes from a specific farm and has its unique story and flavor notes, described with words like 'fruity' or 'floral. specialty coffee comes from special origins, with specific altitudes that altitude with special weather where this coffee can grow successfully. These coffee beans are very delicate, so they need special care and love. Each coffee cherry is handpicked with precision when it's just ripe. This meticulous care ensures the highest quality but demands immense labor, contributing to the higher cost of your coffee. On the other hand commercial coffee focuses on quantity, specialty coffee, like what we find here at 787 Coffee, values quality above all, we only handpick the bright red cherries that are full of flavor. Every step, from cultivation to cup, is crafted to achieve a distinct taste experience.

After harvesting, the coffee cherries go through a sorting and specific process, just like our coffee beans that are processed with honey!  These processes enhance special flavors. This added stage is labor intensive but crucial for that exceptional taste.




The Attention to Detail!

As we mentioned before, apart from being from special places, specialty coffee is also focused on attention to detail, with specialty coffee every detail matters! Roasting transforms green coffee into the aromatic brown beans we know and love. Specialty coffee roasters meticulously control this process to highlight each bean’s unique character. At Hacienda Iluminada we have professional roasters who take care of the products, now if the coffee is not well roasted such as if you are over roasted or under roasted you can change the delicious flavor of these delicious coffee beans. If coffee is Over-roasted coffee then it can have a bitter flavor and if you  under-roasted coffee you can have a herb like falvo. We want our caffeinated humans to taste the real essence of coffee!

. The attention to detail here can either preserve the bean's delicate flavors or compromise the entire batch. This process can take a lot of time from our amazing farmers but it's worth it in the end!

Despite a bag of single-origin coffee reaching high prices in wealthy countries, hardworking farmers often struggle to earn a profit. This injustice just proves we need to work on fairer trade practices in the coffee industry. coffee grown in places like Hawaii and Puerto Rico, costs rise due to higher labor expenses and business operation costs in the USA. This is reflected in the pricing of their exceptional coffee! Now you can have a better understanding of why specialty coffee can be expensive!


Conclusion

Every cup of specialty coffee we enjoy every morning is full of stories and is the result of hours of hard work, dedication, and care. It's the effort on different continents, cultures, and communities. It costs more, but understanding the story behind each cup makes it worth every penny. Next time you indulge in your favorite specialty brew, remember the hands that picked, processed, and perfected your coffee. Maybe this knowledge will make your coffee taste sweeter and better! A great cup of coffee is more than just a drink it's an experience! As we say on 787 coffee every human and every cup has an impactful story!
