Bolivia aka: Lovingly referred to as "The Rooftop of the world" has all the great geographical conditions to produce this wonderful specialty coffee. Bolivia sits high in the Andes Mountains with snowy landscapes, plateaus and tropical rain forests. With the aid of various organizations including the Bolivia Specialty Coffee Association Bolivia has made great strides in their quality and is working hard to be an aggressive player in the world of specialty coffee although only a small producer. Bolivian coffees are primarily grown in the Yungas area which is a tropical region in La Paz with altitudes between 500 and 1,600 meters. Other regions include Cochabamba, Tarija, and Santa Cruz. This typica coffee comes from a handful of small farms who work hard to constantly improve their organic farming practices.

The cup is sweet, very balanced with deep berries and floral notes. You will find this one to be creamy, caramelly, and chocolaty sweet.

Roast: Although this Bolivian can handle the full profile spectrum the peak roast seems best between City to Full City. Keeping it lighter seems to draw out the varietals best nature.
