About Claudia Mathies De Rank

El Paraíso farm, nestled in the Apaneca-Ilamatepec region, has been in Claudia Mathies De Rank’s family since the 1800s. As a fourth-generation coffee producer, Claudia continues a legacy of dedication to quality and sustainability. Spanning 70 hectares, her farm produces between 900 and 1,200 bags of coffee per season. The land’s clay-loam soil, combined with meticulous farming practices, contributes to the exceptional flavor of the beans. Certified by Café Practices, the farm upholds ethical and social responsibility, ensuring workers receive medical assistance every three months at no cost. Additionally, Claudia hosts a Christmas celebration for the workers’ children and the surrounding community, reinforcing her commitment to their well-being.

The coffee undergoes a precise washed process to enhance its clarity and brightness. The beans are first floated to remove any unripe fruit, ensuring only the best quality cherries move forward. They are then carefully dried on raised beds under shade for 9 to 11 days, allowing for even drying and optimal flavor development. This method highlights the farm’s dedication to producing a cup that reflects both tradition and excellence. Through generations of expertise and ethical farming, El Paraíso continues to produce coffee that is not only rich in taste but also deeply rooted in community and care.

  • Blends are available year-round with a smooth, balanced taste, while single-origin coffees highlight unique regional flavours and change with the seasons.

  • Our single origin coffees are from single estates, regions or producers. It allows a more defined and specific flavour and characteristic of coffee to shine. 

  • After harvesting, coffee undergoes a fermentation process, which shapes its flavor. 

    • Washed (Wet) Process: The fruit is removed early, and the beans are washed and fermented in tanks for a clean taste.
    • Natural (Dry) Process: Whole cherries dry in the sun for weeks, creating fruity, complex flavors.
    • Other Methods: Hybrid techniques like honey processing and modern yeast fermentation add unique twists.
  • Coffee trees come in many shapes and sizes, with characteristics adapted to the local climate, growing conditions and sometimes selectively bred in labs. These are called Varietals, and they can paint a picture of the coffee before you even taste it!

  • Elevation is the altitude the coffee grew at. Higher doesn’t always mean better, but denser coffees usually come from higher altitudes. Denser coffees have higher concentrations of nutrients, which affects the roasting and brewing process.

  • The taste or tasting notes are what we all came here for. The unique flavour profile of every coffee is exciting. We want our tasting notes to reflect the coffee but also be inclusive and easy to understand. For green coffees, we supply the sourcing partner cupping and tasting notes, but for our roasted coffees we taste them and describe them ourselves, as roasting style has a big impact on the expression of the flavours in the cup.

  • We rely on incredible, responsible and quality driven sourcing partners to broker coffees on our behalf in the market, and we want to honour that relationship by sharing their story and how it aligns with ours.
