ABOUT

The micro lots making up 'La Seis’ were too small to export on there own, but the quality was so good we didn’t want to miss out …

Being from such a small area, the flavour profiles were very similar, so these specific caturra micro-lots were blended together to create La Seis Estrellas - The Six Stars. The results in the cup are something special - the coffee is sweet and soft with pleasing notes of tangerine - and plenty of caramel and dark chocolate on the finish.
