## What the Brand Says

> Variety: 100% Bourbon Farm: Terrazas del Pisque Region: Pichincha, Ecuador Elevation: 1900-2000 meters Harvest: July 2024 Notes: Dried berry, currant, balanced. Arnaud's coffees are back this year with a refined touch. Causse's Bourbon production is an annual joy to experience, clean and simple. This a solid brew with notes of currant, raisin and dates. Arnaud executes the baseline characteristics of a well maturated Bourbon, it's got a heavy-weighted viscosity. This profile has dark grape and elderberry tones. The cup is remniscient of a classic Bourbon from Latin America, with tenuto tones of cacao with a glossy texture. Arnaud Causse is one of the most interesting coffee farmers we have come across over the years. He's an agricultural engineer that has been expirementing within the practice of forest-grown coffee. After decades of agricultural, lab and ecological trials all over the planet, he's landed in Saraguro. His farm Terrazas del Pisque is a project that he is improving upon with each season. With the Pisque river running nearby, Arnaud has cultivated a biodynamic coffee paradise. Where there are coffee trees, there are also fruit trees planted, eucalyptus, plants for nitrogen fixation and even bee hives included to strengthen the ecosystem. Terrazas del Pisque has become a natural beauty over the years. Arnaud and his partner Sebastian's coffees are differentiated with happy-healthy coffee plants surrounded by a farm full of life. Bourbon is a cultivar of Coffea arabica. It is one of the two main varietals from which many new cultivars have been bred, the other being Typica. Originating from Yemen, it's been one of the most celebrated varieties over the years. In more recent years, Bourbon has been hard to grow successfully, becoming more rare as an exceptional crop with high cup scores. We are glad to see it doing so well under the care of Terrazas del Pisque. Order by Sunday for Monday's roast. Best brewed after a few weeks to a few months after the roast date.
