This coffee is sourced from the Pigtauranan region in Bukidnon, Philippines, grown by smallholder family farmers at an altitude of 1200-1800 meters. Processed using the natural method at the Sitio San Roque wet mill, this coffee features a flavor profile characterized by rich chocolate malt and stewed nectarine. The beans are grown in the volcanic soil of the Mount Kalatungan range, benefiting from a unique microclimate.
