Our latest honey processed lot from Los Romerillos in Zumba, Ecuador. We find this coffee to be super syrupy, rich and flavourful. We're roasting this one for Filter Only, and it's one that's going to be super approachable and easy to brew consistently at home. The acidity is sweet and mild, reminding us of stone-fruits like nectarine and peach.

This rich and syrupy microlot comes from Los Romerillos, a farming collective surrounding the small highland town of Zumba, Ecuador. Historically, the inhabitants of this small town made their living from the sale of fine wood from a type of tree called Romerillos. These people, who used to dedicate their lives to selling wood, decided a few years ago to become coffee growers, but kept the name of the vereda Los Romerillos as a reference to their past. Zumba is also home to an annual coffee fair - Bracamoros Coffee, which showcases the very best in local Ecuadorian coffee and incentivizes the production of specialty coffee in the region, as well as the entire country.
