Don Sabino Micromill is a father-son project that produces meticulous coffees in what seems like "simple" conditions but with incredible care and attention to detail.
Though the mill was established in 2011, Steven Vargas and his father have been in coffee their whole lives. They own several plots of farmland in the area, where they grow a number of different varieties. This SL28 variety has SOOO much fun fruit. The natural processing of the coffee brings out a massive amount of sweetness while leaving the acidity profile mostly unaffected.
