mcclane is a natural-process specialty coffee from the loja region of ecuador, roasted by café infiltrado. loja sits in southern ecuador at high altitude, and the natural process means the coffee cherries are dried whole, which concentrates the fruit's sugars and intensifies the bean's character. the result is a cup centered on cocoa, with the depth and body you'd expect from a natural. it works well as a filter or as espresso, though the cocoa weight makes it particularly satisfying brewed slow, french press or pour-over, with water just off the boil to let that chocolate quality develop fully.

common questions

What does McCLANE taste like?

mcclane leads with cocoa, a flavor reinforced by the natural process, which dries the whole cherry and produces a denser, richer cup than washed coffees from the same region.

How is McCLANE grown and processed?

it's grown in loja, ecuador, and processed naturally, meaning the harvested cherries are dried with the fruit intact before milling, which deepens sweetness and body in the final cup.

How should I brew McCLANE?

a slow filter method like pour-over or french press will give the cocoa character room to develop, though its body also holds up well as espresso if you prefer a shorter, more concentrated drink.
