In 2020, LCM started buying from Dora Mendez and it was clear to us straight away that Dora's coffee would be valuable to us. In Feb 2021, Finca Buenavista suffered a landslide, leaving a big gap in production for the coming harvest.
With the help of the team at Cedro Alto, she has forgone prevailing wisdom and planted native hardwood shade trees, which will in future keep the hillside steadier, increase biodiversity and quality on the farm. Thanks to the hard work of Julio and Karl at Cedro Alto, we hope this important relationship can continue for many more harvests!
A great filter option, with complexity for the discerning and plenty of sugar sweetness for everyone.
