What Cafetoria Roastery says about this coffee
La Josefina is a farm owned by a couple, Ligia Merizalde and Leopoldo Andrade. The land is located within the Cayambe-Coca Natural Reserve. The couple grows several varieties on their land, including Pacas, Rume Sudan, Tekisic, Pink Bourbon, Pacamara, Caturra, Gresha, and Typica. Pichincha, situated in the northern highlands of the Andean Plateau, is known for its cool weather, two volcanoes, and rose farms. Although the area is relatively lower in elevation, the average temperature and mist often covers the land in the afternoons, known as cloud forests. This climate provides coffee with comfortability during the day, while the cool nights slightly stress the coffee into producing more sugars per cherry.
This coffee is a selection of beans from the Sidra variety, a new hybrid varietal, made of Red Bourbon and Typica that combines characteristics of these two varieties. It has acquired the sweetness and the body of Red Bourbon and the bright taste and acidity of Typica.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

A further 3 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
