Marcial Huanca | Finca Palmar

This washed Java from Marcial Huanca at Finca Palmar in Caranavi, Bolivia, was depulped, fermented, and carefully dried to let the variety speak clearly.

Honey sweetness opens the nose, followed by delicate white and yellow florals that drift through the cup with a soft, clean texture. Acidity is very low — the finish is gentle and round.

The coffee should rest for minimum 21 days after roasting and be used within 4 months at the latest. The coffee reaches its maximum complexity within a certain period of time. In our experience we found that between 4-8 weeks the coffees are reaching their peak.

Omnirost (or "omni-roast") is a roasting approach where coffee beans are roasted to a versatile light-medium level that works well across multiple brewing methods. Rather than optimizing for a single preparation style, omnirost aims to deliver balanced flavor that shines whether the coffee is brewed as espresso, pour-over, French press, or other methods.

About the producer / farm

Über den Produzenten / die Farm

Marcial Huanca | Finca Palmar

Marcial Huanca is a small-scale producer based in the community of 25 de Abril in the Caranavi growing region of Bolivia, and a member of Cooperative Mejillones. He is also a certified Q-grader and has judged at Cup of Excellence and Cup of Fair Trade competitions previously held in Bolivia, bringing a technical depth to his farming that goes well beyond the average smallholder. His focus on quality and his direct involvement in the specialty market have made Finca Palmar a reliable source of clean, expressive lots from one of South America's most promising coffee regions.

About the varietal

Über die Sorte

Java

Java is an Ethiopian landrace selection that travelled via Indonesia and Cameroon before reaching Central America, where it is now widely cultivated in specialty. Genetically, it is classified as an Ethiopian landrace type rather than a true Typica, despite early reports. The variety produces elongated, bronze-tipped beans and is prized for its disease tolerance and low input requirements. In the cup, Java delivers a refined, soft sweetness with delicate floral accents and a clean, gentle acidity — a quiet but well-defined profile that rewards careful washed processing.

About the process

Über die Aufbereitung

Washed

The washed process begins with selective picking of ripe cherries, which are then depulped to remove the outer skin. The beans ferment in water or dry for a controlled period to break down the remaining mucilage before being thoroughly washed and moved to drying beds. Drying typically takes one to two weeks, depending on conditions, with the beans turned regularly to ensure even moisture loss. The result is a clean, transparent cup where the character of the bean and the skill of the producer come through without interference from the fruit.

About the roast

Omniroast

Most coffees are roasted with a single brewing method in mind — lighter for filter, darker for espresso. An Omniroast throws out that rulebook.

Each of our Omniroast coffees is developed to a single, carefully crafted profile that lets the coffee shine however you choose to brew it — whether that's a morning pour-over, a pulled espresso shot, or anything in between. The goal is balance: enough brightness and complexity to sing in a filter brew, enough body and sweetness to hold up as an espresso.

It's all about the coffee

At Sandbox, we embrace innovation and challenge the status quo. That’s why we don’t differentiate between espresso and filter roasts, and we use only light roasts to bring out the best in our coffee. We encourage you to explore and experiment with our coffees—whether you prefer filter, espresso, or flat white, make it your own. Be curious, enjoy the journey and let’s learn from each other!
