Imagine a remote cloud forest at an altitude of 1,800 meters where the air is so pure you can almost taste it. That is where Cloud Nectar comes from. This coffee from the Monte Verde cooperative has a sugary-sweet profile that reminds us of berry syrup and warm apricots. With notes of orange and a base of cacao nibs, it is the perfect balance between fresh and familiar. Behind this bean is a beautiful social project by husband-and-wife duo Alfonso Tejada and Karen Araoz. They sold their travel agency in the city to return to their roots and help local farmers lift their quality to a world-class level. Their model farm, Finca Timbuyacu, is a place where 250 farmers learn how to grow the very best coffee in a sustainable, climate-friendly way. This coffee is Rainforest Alliance and Organic certified, which guarantees that the natural wealth of the Amazon is protected. The creamy body and the long, fruity aftertaste make it an absolute favorite. It is an honest, sunny coffee that shows sustainability and top-tier flavor go hand in hand.
