Starting with creamy milk chocolate, there's a freshness of sliced, ripe orange alongside it before it morphs into dark chocolate in the finish.
Gregorio Palli Mamani is a dedicated coffee producer from Copacabana, a colonia in Bolivia’s Caranavi province, the heart of the country’s specialty coffee production. His journey into coffee began when his parents moved from the remote province of Muñecas to Caranavi in search of better educational opportunities for Gregorio, as their hometown lacked a school.
Today, Gregorio lives on his farm, Volcán del Tigre, with his wife Daisy and their two youngest children. He also has two grown-up children from a previous marriage, who now have families of their own. The younger ones occasionally help out on the farm, and his brother Julio Palli Mamani runs a nearby coffee farm called San Bartolomé.
Gregorio has been farming this land for 35 years, and while the farm spans 12 hectares, only two hectares are currently planted with coffee. The remaining ten hectares hold promise for future expansion. He grows Caturra and Catuai varietals at an altitude of 1,504 meters above sea level, commonly using a washed processing method.
