From the hills of Marre Blanc, Haiti, this washed Caturra & Typica lot represents the quiet resurgence of Haitian specialty coffee — a movement built on care, craft, and community. Though Haiti’s coffee heritage once rivalled its Caribbean neighbours, decades of instability led to its decline. Now, smallholder producers and regional cooperatives are reviving these high-altitude farms, bringing forward coffees with character and depth.
This particular lot shows just how good Haitian coffee can be: buttery and full-bodied, with toasted almond and peanut richness balanced by the sweet, nostalgic undertones of root beer, vanilla, and black currant. Its gentle structure and creamy texture make it a comforting yet surprisingly distinctive cup — proof that craftsmanship in Haiti is once again finding its voice.
Marre Blanc delivers everything you want in a daily coffee — warmth, sweetness, and a touch of intrigue — while telling a story of resilience and rediscovery.
