Volcán Machín Espresso Reserve
Born where the mountains meet the sky, This Espresso captures the spirit of Cajamarca, Colombia — a land shaped by fire, soil, and the steady hands of passionate farmers.
This lively espresso is a single-origin harmony of two remarkable coffees: a naturally processed Tabi from Granja Kaffeto and a fully washed Colombia variety from the same volcanic region. Together, they create a balance that’s both art and alchemy — where sweetness meets depth, and brightness melts into a velvety finish.
Crafted in partnership with Edward Montiel, a grower devoted to quality and experimentation, each bean tells a story of tradition meeting innovation. The natural process brings lush fruit and syrupy sweetness, while the washed beans add clarity, balance, and a clean chocolatey backbone.

Story
Brewed as espresso, this coffee reveals itself in layers — smooth and full-bodied, with indulgent notes of caramel, milk chocolate, and almond. Add steamed milk, and it transforms into a cup that’s comforting yet complex — the taste of bright mornings and crafted perfection.
There's Montiel Sr, a man whose laughter rings through the valleys as he meticulously hand-picks only the ripest cherries. He knows that uniformity is key for an espresso. Each cherry must possess the same sugar content, the same readiness, to ensure a consistent, flawless extraction. It's a labour of love, a daily commitment to perfection, guided by the sun, the soil, and the legacy passed down from his grandparents.
After careful washing and sun-drying on raised beds, the beans are transformed. They hold within them the essence of Cajamarca: the crisp mountain air, the mineral richness of the volcanic earth, and the unwavering dedication of its people. When these beans are roasted, we don't just roast them; we honour their journey. We craft a dark, deep profile that awakens their inherent chocolatey notes, their bold intensity, and the velvety crema that crowns every perfect shot.
So, when you taste Volcan Coffee's House Espresso, you're not just savouring a beverage. You're experiencing the enduring spirit of Cajamarca. You’re tasting Montiel's' Sr ancient wisdom in the soil, and his meticulous care in the harvest, and the fiery heart of a volcano translated into a liquid art. It's a story of earth, hands, and passion, culminating in The Perfect Shot.
Volcan Machi Espresso Reserve – a tribute to balance, beauty, and the bold heart of Colombia.
