Sergio Enamorado is back at Huck, and wraps up our 2024 harvest Central Americas!
Sergio’s coffee has been a mainstay at Huck for years now, and before our merger, Commonwealth, too! We’re huge fans of Sergio himself, and the family effort that goes into this delicious coffee. While we might give Sergio headline credit, his son, Sergio Jr., is just as passionate and almost as knowledgeable as his dad, and the extended Enamorado family works together to make all of their coffees better.
Most of the extended family - grandfather Pedro Moreno, father Encarnación Enamorado, cousin Evin Moreno - live and farm in the village of El Cedral on Santa Barbara mountain. Each family member processes their coffee separately, but they all share the same processing compound and equipment, including a depulper, washing tanks, and parabolic drying beds. Pedro and Encarnación oversee drying and a small nursery for the extended family, and when it comes time to harvest one family member's farm or another, Sergio's able to lean on Evin for help, and vice versa.
There's plenty to love in this coffee, whether you flock to the fruity and bright or prefer more traditional Latin American flavors that pair well with milk. This year’s harvest has plenty of maple syrup-like sweetness and hazelnut creaminess, but Sergio’s coffee always has a subtly-tangy fruit character that keeps things interesting. Brew up a cup, queue Shaggy’s “Boombastic,” and enjoy some great coffee from Mr. Lover.

There are a lot of drip coffee makers out there in various sizes. The grind size you should use is dependent on how much you’re brewing, but generally, you’ll want to use a grind size that is considered “medium.” It will feel similar to beach sand.

The aeropress is extremely versatile, and you can look up different ways on the internet to brew coffee using this contraption. For this method, we mostly stick to the devices’ instructions. We use 2 filters instead of just one for a cleaner mouthfeel. Start a timer when you touch water to the grounds. Once all your water is added, stir for 10 seconds, then apply the plunger part to the main portion to create a vacuum and allow it to brew. Make sure to take everything off the scale before you plunge so you don’t ruin your scale. Start pressing gently at 2:00, aiming to finish by 2:30.
