Description

Wilton Benitez, who is part mad scientist, part engineer, & part coffee farmer, has been producing coffee for 28 years, 18 years of which he has exclusively been focused on specialty coffee. With the help of his brother, he designs and builds all of the industry leading equipment that he uses to process coffee on his farm. He uses bio-reactors, that he built, for controlled fermentation, as well as being able to maintain constant control of factors like temperature, pH, and brix. This is no small endeavour and requires a huge amount of dedication to the process. Once the washed parchment has been processed, he transfers the coffee to eco-dryers, again which he built, that run on meagre amounts of electricity, and allow to completely recycle the water that has been removed from the processed coffee.

Andrew had the opportunity to visit Wilton in October of 2023, after meeting him in El Salvador in March of that year and had a phenomenal 3 days at his farm with him & his team. We've been purchasing his coffees ever since and welcomed him to our shop in Spring of 2025. His farm is a beautiful eco-system filled with local species of birds, animals, plants, all the which is surrounded by extremely healthy vegetation amongst one hundred hectares of specialty coffee, and we love purchasing his coffees.

Exceptionally rare & beautifully unique

This extremely limited lot is a special varietal called Sudan Rume. With its deep roots from the Boma Plateau in South Sudan, near the Ethiopian border, Sudan Rume is a pure heirloom variety that has remained relatively untouched by modern hybridization and is considered one of the truest forms of Coffea Arabica in todays world. Its rarity, combined with its outstanding cup quality is why it's become one of the most sought after varietals in speciality coffee today. Taste intense peaches, all spice, and melon like sweetness. We tasted this lot when Wilton visited us in our café in the Spring of this year and this coffee jumped off the table. It was simply one of the more impressive coffees we had tasted in years, and we commited to purchasing it then and there. This is the first time we have ever purchased an Sudan Rume varietal and we're excited to continue our relationship with Wilton Benitez with this new and exciting micro-lot!
