2009 Bolivia Cup of Excellence® Winning Farms - Auction November 19, 2009
Lot#: 14 Agustina Machaca Quispe - Café Primavera II

Overview

This producer values the technical assistance which helped her improve her quality control for the 2009 Cup of Excellence.

She thinks that Bolivian coffee has a window to the world because she learned from her husband that the night of the prize ceremony, many foreign experts in coffee tasting came to Bolivia. This is a reality that Bolivian producers should take advantage of.

She thanks the Cup of Excellence infinitely for providing the opportunity to compete as a specialty coffee.

Agustina believes that she won fourteenth place because she worked on selective harvest of cherries. Just as the radio says, the harvest should be undertaken carefully and with a great deal of attention. This way, she can have a very high quality coffee and develop good soils with ecological clearing.
