    The smallholders in the Aromas De Valle cooperative are artists when it comes to crafting Caturra lots like this. Planted alongside staple crops like rice and sugarcane, the lots from San Felipe district are lauded for their complexity and well-rounded flavours. While bolstered by the region’s temperate weather, high altitude, and low humidity (perfect conditions for slow ripening), it’s the fully washed processing that lends the cup its clean profile that allows notes of apricot, grapefruit, and cocoa nib to truly shine.
