The name of this coffee, Buesaco Jardines, means "Gardens of Buesaco" — a nod to the lush gardens surrounding the small coffee farms of this municipality nestled in the Andes cordillera. It is a delicate coffee with citrus and apple notes, supported by a marmalade and compote sweetness. On the finish, you'll find hints of black tea and a floral touch. Highly recommended as a filter — it's truly excellent!
The Jardines project was born out of a collective effort to bring together small harvests and create more consistent, manageable lots that fully express the character of the terroir. This blend unites several producers, including Aura Montánchez, a second-generation grower, Yovanny Pinchao of Finca La Esperanza — the first in his family to start growing coffee in 2019 — and Javier Martínez of Villa Moreno, based in the village of El Cortijo.
The coffees from their farms offer natural complexity thanks to the altitude and unique microclimates of the region. The processing — simple yet masterfully executed — gives this blend a purity and aromatic clarity that truly shines in the cup.
