Everything you want to know
This coffee is grown on a Caribbean island, where the hills and plateaus of Escambray are located (also called the Crystal Mountains) thanks to the rich in quartz crystals soil.
The plantations located on the higher plateaus have been renovated in recent years in order to improve the quality of the coffee. Cultivation takes place entirely in the shade of indigenous tall trees such as Ingas, Eryhnias and Leucaenas and benefits from mild temperatures and frequent rains. After manual harvesting with selective picking, this coffee is processed with the washed method.
This coffee obtained 83 points according to the SCA tasting protocol.
