(New) Ecuador - Microlot - Pablo Ponce - Finca San Pablo
Description: This Microlot specialty coffee is from Pichincha, Ecuador, an emerging growing region north of Quito. Perla Chiquita Pablo Ponce is a coffee producer who developed a taste for fine coffees while he was living in Milan, Italy. Microlots from Ecuador are sourced from independent specialty-coffee farmers and represent the highest quality and the highest level of traceability available.
Pichincha, situated in the northern highlands of the Andean Plateau, is known for its cool weather, two volcanoes, and rose farms. Although the area is relatively lower in elevation, the average temperature is 65° and mist often covers the land in the afternoons, known as cloud forests. This climate provides coffee with comfortability during the day, while the cool nights slightly stress the coffee into producing more sugars per cherry.
