Price not usable

Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.

How it sits among coffee from Ecuador

How often roasters use each flavour family to describe coffee from Ecuador: 25 of 46 carry notes. The dashed outline is the whole catalogue. These are the roasters’ own words, grouped — not our tasting, and not a measurement.

Special Guests describe this coffee as fruity, nutty. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ecuador; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

nutty is unusual here — 20% of coffee from Ecuador are described that way.

Not stated

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.

Where each fact came from

Altitude, highest

“Altitude: 1400-1600mASL La Josefina is an exceptional farm in Ecuador’s Amazonian region, located between Sumaco and Cayambe-Coca National Parks and nourished by volcanic ash from nearby El Reventador.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Altitude, lowest

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.

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.
