Finca Perla Negra E22 Washed

Description

Finca Perla Negra is located in the cloud-forest region of Nanegal region in Pichincha Province, Ecuador, a region that has become one of the country's most important specialty coffee-producing areas. Although the region sits at a relatively modest elevation compared with many renowned coffee-growing areas, its cool mountain climate, persistent cloud cover, and fertile volcanic-influenced soils create exceptional conditions for coffee cultivation. The slower pace of cherry maturation allows sugars and flavor compounds to develop more fully, resulting in coffees with remarkable sweetness, vibrant acidity, and refined floral complexity. Don Olger Rogel is famous for popularizing Typica Mejorado and Sidra, two varieties that are now iconic in Ecuador. E22 is a cross between one of sterile Ethiopian-lineage trees and a pure Ethiopian mother plant — both parents tracing directly to wild-collected Ethiopian landrace material. It represents a deliberate double-down on the flavour architecture that has driven Don Olger's work from the beginning. 200g Direct trade with Finca Perla Negra Origins: Pichincha, Ecuador Producer: Olger Rogel Variety: E22 Process: Washed Elevation: masl Harvest: 2025 Recommended Brew: Filter Aroma: Floral, Plum Flavour: Floral, Yellom Peach, Plum, Honey
