Why Is This Coffee Called Miraflores?
Miraflores is the current name of our premium washed coffee sourced from the Ebéjico region of Antioquia. You may still see this coffee referred to as Ebéjico in older TCP materials or product references.
The coffee is sourced through Los Cedros, our partner buying center in Ebéjico, where coffee from local smallholder producers is evaluated, selected and prepared for our premium washed program.
How This Coffee Is Produced?
Miraflores has a washed processing method. The process begins with the harvesting of ripe coffee cherries, followed by pulping to remove the outer skin and pulp.
The coffee then undergoes a short fermentation period in water for approximately 14 to 18 hours, which helps break down and facilitate the removal of the remaining mucilage.
Finally, the coffee is dried either mechanically or naturally under the sun until the moisture content is reached between 10% to 12.5%.
How Miraflores Is Sourced?
Los Cedros uses the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation, or FNC, reference price as a benchmark when purchasing coffee from local producers. Farmers who deliver higher-quality parchment can receive additional quality premiums based on the physical quality and cup profile of their coffee.
During the 2024 harvest, coffee purchased for this sourcing program was paid at an average of approximately 13% above the applicable FNC reference price. This model is designed to reward producers for quality while maintaining a transparent pricing structure connected to the Colombian coffee market.
Roast And Brewing Recommendations
Recommended Roast: Medium, Medium Dark and Espresso Dark
This roast range develops the coffee’s chocolate, sugar cane and acidity notes while preserving balanced sweetness and a creamy body.
Best For: Espresso, milk-based drinks, batch brew and blends.
For espresso and milk-based drinks, a medium-dark roast will emphasize body and chocolate sweetness. A medium roast will retain more acidity and highlight the sugar cane character.
| Roast / Application | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Medium | More acidity, sugar cane sweetness and balance |
| Medium-dark | More chocolate, sweetness and body |
| Espresso | Strong fit |
| Milk drinks | Strong fit |
| Filter | Good fit for a balanced, approachable cup |
| Blend component | Strong fit for adding chocolate, sweetness and body |
