This week's Friday Fresh is a Microlot from Yefri Pintado, a farmer in the Valle del Santuario cooperative in Peru. He only has 4 hectares, so him crop is very small by definition. We'll only have this for a short time, so pick some up while you can.
The Coffee... This phenomenal microlot from Yefri Pintado offers sweet, harmonious notes of pear, vanilla, and ripe summer cherries above a smooth, syrupy body. One of the most talented farmers we work with anywhere, Yefri cultivates heirloom Typica, Pache, Bourbon, Caturra, and Catimor varietal coffees on his 4-hectare farm located at 1700m above sea level in San Ignacio, Peru.
