Finca La Aurum - Sidra

Aurum - 6591

35

At Aurum in Masanamaca, Loja, Luis Carpio Iniguez continues to develop a farm built on former livestock land at 1,660 masl — a long-term project that required rebuilding soil condition from the ground up before meaningful coffee production was possible. Heavy seasonal rainfall in the region has shaped both the farm's layout and the management of its trees.
This Sidra Bourbon lot was processed as a Natural, with selectively picked cherries dried under monitored conditions. Two lots from Aurum appear in this competition: a Natural Geisha (rank 18) and this Natural Sidra Bourbon. Where the Geisha showed jasmine, mandarin, and nectarine, the Sidra Bourbon moves toward lavender, guava, and honey — a fruitier, warmer expression of the same farm and the same careful drying approach.
