Cuba Sierra Maestra Select
A structured Cuban Arabica with cocoa richness, gentle citrus brightness and a smooth, classic finish.
Overview
Coffee from Cuba’s Sierra Maestra mountains grows between 1000–1400 MASL under shaded canopies. The profile is balanced and traditional — cocoa depth supported by mild citrus lift and nutty undertones. Medium roasting enhances sweetness while preserving brightness. This coffee is approachable yet structured, making it suitable for both espresso and manual brews. It reflects Cuba’s classic Latin American style: smooth, grounded and quietly vibrant.
Producer Story
The region’s growers rely on smallholder production and shade-grown practices that maintain environmental harmony. While production volumes remain modest, quality-focused farms continue to preserve Cuba’s coffee identity in the global specialty landscape.
