Rounding out our three offerings from Sebastian is this lively and sweet washed Pacamara lot. In the cup, we find notes of lemongrass, root beer, and dried fruit,
In our second year buying coffee from Sebastian, we purchased three distinct micro-lots from his Finca Terrazas del Pisque, including this Pacamara lot! Finca Terrazas del Pisque is located in Pichincha, Quito, Ecuador, and is managed by Sebastian Garcés, alongside Arnaud Causse. The farm has established itself as an incubator of elusive and exotic coffee varieties and is focused on regenerative agriculture having implemented a full stop to chemical inputs. They keep different animals on the farm including chickens to help mitigate larvae, peilbuey sheep to help graze and fertilize, and bees for pollination. Additionally, they create their own charcoal using fallen branches.
