These high-grown coffees are world class in their quality and consecutive winners of ACE (Alliance Cup of Excellence) Competitions for many years with consistent SCA sensorial cupping scores from between 85 and 93 points. There are four principle coffee producing regions. (Veracruz, Chiapas, Oaxaca, and Puebla)
The consistent repeating flavor profiles that always jump to the forefront of these coffees is: brown sugar, vanilla, almond, lemon grass, hazelnut, citrus, cacao, and stone fruits with hints of rosehip, cinnamon and black pepper. Depending on the fermenting process that is applied, (washed, natural, honey, or double fermentations) these notes can certainly change in their intensity and depth. However, the one factor that continually remains consistent once roasted is the incredibly smooth balance between acidity and their natural flavor profiles.
Throughout the harvesting and buying season of the year, our inventory may vary as to which specific lots we may have available at the time. The varietals that we carry on a consistent basis are as follows: Typical, Red Bourbon, Mundo Novo, Oro Azteca, Garnet (Garnica), Catimor, Caturra, Costa Rica, Columbian, Marsellesa, Pacamara, and Geisha. Most of our green coffee offerings will be washed process. However, in the future we will be offering smaller lots of the following processes: honey, naturals, and double fermentations.
All of our green coffee beans go through a rigorous selection process to ensure that we are delivering to our clients only the highest quality beans.
- Strictly High Grown. The cooler temps at high altitudes creates denser sugar levels
- Picked at the very peak of their ripeness to insure high brix sugar levels.
- Raised African screen bed drying or Open Patio Dried
- Electronic density selection process to select only the highest quality beans
Then finally processed with an Oliver selector to ensure consistent bean size.
La Villa Coffee Company only sources coffees which are 100% Mexican in origin.
The Selection Process
It is with great care and a tremendous amount of knowledge that we, along with our Mexican team select our coffees. Our coffees are 100% Mexican in origin. The majority of our coffees are sourced from the state of Veracruz. However, we also source coffees from the states of Puebla, Oaxaca, and Chiapas. All our coffee beans are cultivated 1000m above sea level or higher. They are 100% arabica beans and are selected at the peak of their ripeness. However, not all arabica beans are equal. Just because a coffee boasts arabica beans does not automatically mean that they are of high quality. There are various varieties of arabica beans. We are committed to sourcing the varieties of beans that have proven to produce unequalled “World Class” flavors and aromas in each and every cup of coffee.

The Preparation and Roasting Process
The majority of our coffee beans go through what is called a “washed” process where the coffee beans are hulled, left in water for a short time of fermentation, and then finally dried in their own parchment covering before being separated into raw green coffee beans. These green beans then go through a selection process where only the beans of the highest quality and uniformity are selected for roasting. Our coffees are carefully roasted by master roasters at a medium to medium dark roast to insure that the client receives an intense coffee experience without losing any of the unique flavors and aromas that specialty coffees are famous for producing.
