A very boozy and bright coffee, with the natural preparation bringing out flavours of strawberry, sherry, twiglets. An earthy finish, particularly delicious through a filter. An estate located in the midst of a mountainous natural reserve, all cherries are handpicked according to the microclimates of each individual farm, to maximise their potential. The estate also houses a fully vertically integrated processing system, to allow for precise differentiation and sorting of each bean. With the Teach a Man to Fish charity, we fund three children through the on-site technical college of La Bastilla, providing them the skills to move into tourism, animal husbandry and farming – we are very proud that our first few students have now moved on to university!
