This natural Arabica grows on the slopes of the Sierra de Bahoruco in the Neiba Valley, northeast of Lake Enriquillo and southwest of the Dominican Republic, at an altitude of 1700 m above sea level.
A true Caribbean gem.
Surrounded by tropical forest, which protects its fruit, this coffee enjoys a perfect habitat for growing. This microclimate has enabled master grower Montilla to cultivate and process the coffee entirely naturally.
Once picked at perfect ripeness, the fruit is left on raised drying beds in the sun for 3 to 7 days until completely dried.
The next step is depulping and cleaning.
Roasted over direct heat, it reveals its generous body, with notes of orange liqueur and candied fruit.
