Mexico Finca Chelín Solok 7oz

Enrique López of Finca Chelín is not afraid to take risks in his relentless pursuit of flavor. When a friend brought him an obscure seed from Indonesia called Solok that Enrique had never heard of, he didn't flinch, planting it in some of the choicest groves on his farm. This tiny lot represents his first harvest of Solok — and the first we know of anywhere in the world outside Indonesia.

PLEASE NOTE: This coffee roasts & ships from Chicago only.
