Back from Ecuador 🇪🇨
La Joya Sidra is here again, another fantastic coffee from Ecuador, produced by Javier Castro at his one hectare farm in the Chocó Andino.
Javier has only been growing coffee at La Joya for around six years, focusing entirely on Sidra. It’s a challenging place to produce coffee, with high humidity and heavy rainfall making consistency difficult, but the quality coming from this small farm continues to impress us.
This washed Sidra is bright, layered and constantly changing in the cup, with juicy tangerine and rhubarb when hot, moving towards blackcurrant and sweet sticky toffee as it cools.
A beautiful coffee from a young farm we’re delighted to be working with again.
