2009 Bolivia Cup of Excellence® Winning Farms - Auction November 19, 2009
Lot#: 4 Cruz Elias Choconapi - Café Jacaranda
Overview

JACARANDA: The brand is named after a fine tropical hardwood that flowers in a beautiful purple color. In 2003, we participated in the Cup of Excellence, “Cupping the Mountain's Peak” in the city of Coroico, where we earned fourth place with a score of 88.22. CAFÉ JACARANDA is a fine, high-quality coffee. It has an intense acidity, sweetness and a fragrant aroma. Café JACARANDA is produced between 1500 and 1800 meters above sea level, in a tropical zone with ideal soils for this type of coffee. We have three ecological zones. Cruz Choconapi arrived in the Colon 2da Berea in 1970, and began producing coffee with his family, two brothers and two sisters. This is a high altitude coffee with a lot of acidity, fragrant aromas and creamy body.
