From the producer

This release combines SL9 from two neighboring farms managed by Lucio Luque and Eudis Orosco near Amaybamba. Neither producer should be represented as the sole source.

From the roaster

Counter Culture Coffee is a prominent American specialty roaster founded in 1995 that focuses on direct-trade relationships and educational initiatives for coffee professionals.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This lot documents a rare, genetically unresolved cultivar without repeating the misleading local nickname as a Gesha identification, and it preserves both contributing producers and farms.
