## What the Brand Says

> Farms in this region are small, ranging from 1 to 5 hectares each. Sitting at around 1700-2100 MASL, these coffees are floral, complex, and juicy. Farmers here usually grow Typica and Bourbón varieties, with a mix of Pacas. Fermentation and drying processes usually include 24-hour fermentation periods after pulping, which helps heighten the fruit element in the cup. Look for notes of strawberry, earl grey, and chocolate cake in the cup.
