ABOUT FAMILIA VALLECILLO
This year, we purchased two lots from the Vallecillo family—a 100% Catuai separation and a 100% Yellow Pacas lot. Their farm, located high up on Santa Bárbara mountain, produces coffee that can be truly exceptional. This is our first year working with the Vallecillo family, and we are excited to continue exploring this special region and the traditional varieties that first sparked our love for coffee.
ABOUT CATUAI
Catuai is from the Typica-Bourbon lineage. It is a cross between Mundo Novo and Caturra. This variety type is high yielding in comparison to the traditional Bourbon variety. Because of its smaller size the plants can be more closely spaced, meaning it can be planted at nearly double the density while maintaining high cup quality. This characteristic makes it a very good option for producers.
