Two years ago, on October 26, 2023, Anabel, Brenda, Chris, and Zoulka founded warawul together.

From the very beginning, warawul’s mission has been to work hand in hand with individual producers as well as cooperatives and producer-led initiatives — creating a platform that amplifies their voices and enables them to tell their stories in their own words.

Since May 2025, we have been a member of the Überlegen Collective, a network and online marketplace of roasters who trade coffee transparently, fairly, and sustainably. Joining Überlegen has given us new momentum and connected us with a vibrant community of roasteries that share the same commitment to transparency, fairness, and exceptional coffee.

To celebrate 2 years of warawul and Überlegen’s anniversary, we are releasing a limited edition of Cascaritas Chardonnay — a light-roasted Pacas from Moisés Hidardo Hernández, founder of the CAFEMO Cooperative in Mercedes, Honduras, and a fourth-generation smallholder coffee farmer with a passion for microlots. The coffee was fermented with Chardonnay yeast.

“I love to experiment,” he says. “With new or lesser-known varieties, with processes like anaerobic fermentation, and with different types of yeasts or enzymes. Sometimes that leads to very distinctive — even radical — flavor profiles.”

We couldn’t resist Hidardo’s Honey-Enzyme and Chardonnay-Yeast Pacas. This coffee is roasted as a light espresso and is available in very limited quantities through Überlegen.
