Source
Putushio: The name of this beautiful farm - Putushio - comes from the sacred mountain with the same name where, 35,000 years ago, ancient foundries melted precious metals. On the fertile terraced soil, descending to El Tasqui waterfall, coffee is grown at 2160 masl. The farm has just 8000 plants that produce some of the best coffee in Ecuador (Putushio recently won a Best of Loja regional competition). The farm is certified in Good Manufacturing Practices by Agrocalidad, the Ecuadorean institution for farm quality control.
Halo Beriti: At the Halo Beriti washing station, Abeyot serves as operational manager. The station collects cherries from 520 neighboring smallholders, whose average plots are no larger than a hectare. Abeyot uses water from the Worka river to wash the coffee. Fermentation times vary between 45 and 65 hours, depending on the weather. The parchment dries for 7 to 10 days.
Pick-Me-Up: A lively blend of traceable Ethiopian and Colombian coffees, our staple house blend will (probably) turn you into a full-blown morning person. Don't say we didn't warn you!
