Daniel Cobilt has been involved with coffee since he was born. Coffee is something that he carries in his blood and he inherited from his parents. He has been growing coffee on his own for 40 years and year after year, he has been learning more about the production of coffee and its supply chain.

For instance, he hasn’t only learned about the coffee cultivation, but he has been very interested in the innovation and experimentation of processing methods such as washed, naturals, and honey processed coffees. Additionally, he has been very interested in understanding the art of roasting coffee to see how his processes can make the work of the roaster and the barista easier and more exciting.

For him, coffee is an example of resilience, that despite the challenges, is always willing to continue improving the quality and is getting better every day.

Every night, the fireflies at Finca Cañada Fría decorate the coffee trees with a beautiful light show which Daniel loves since the first time he saw it. In Finca Cañada Fría, they don’t damage the environment because they avoid the use any product on their farms that could risk the environment of their future generations.

They want that the people that drink their coffee, do it with all the confidence that the coffee was grown respecting the environment, implementing sustainable practices, and with the objective of always doing things well.

Their slogan at the farm is: We plant dreams and harvest feelings.

The location

Coffee from Mexico

While Mexico is in the top 10 coffee-producing countries, its most commonly associated with commodity coffee used in lower-grade blends. Thankfully this is changing as more smaller producers show what’s possible with quality-focused picking and processing.

Farm processes

Washed process

Machines are used to remove the flesh from the coffee cherry before being fermented in water, washed again, and finally sun dried. This process tends to result in more distinct, cleaner flavours.
