Bolivia Floripondio is a remarkable gesha coffee, which we've been lucky enough to source. With less than 100 bags available for purchase, this coffee is a limited edition delight.
The wonderful Rodríguez family established Floripondio within the traditional food-producing region of Samaipata. With the lowest parts of the valley sitting at 1600 MASL and the highest at 1800 MASL, the region has a fairly extreme climate.
The 47-hectare farm (29 of which are planted with coffee) is found at a staggering 1710 MASL. It has two breathtaking viewpoints: one over the spectacular Andes mountain ranges, and another over the Amboró National Park, arguably home to the world’s greatest biodiversity of flora and fauna. This protected park is located west of the department of Santa Cruz in the so-called “Codo de Los Andes” where, quite poetically so, the western mountain range changes course to the south.
During the day, the average temperature in this region sits at around 25-30°C, while at night it drops to 8-10°C. This makes the ripening process of the cherries slow right down. Here, the sugars of the fruit are concentrated in the cherry and bean - in turn, helping to produce an incredibly sweet and complex coffee. Delicious!
When these beautiful cherries reached the washing station for processing, they were then pulped and placed in stainless steel tanks without oxygen for 75 hours before cleaning and drying.

*This is the FOB (Free On Board) price: the price paid to the exporter before shipping, and which does not include shipping costs, weight loss (around 17%), storage and other charges. Ultimately, the FOB price represents the $ figure that stays in the coffee's country of origin, benefiting its producer, community, and beyond.
^This is the 'raw' price paid directly to the producer, and paid in the local currency for parchment coffee. The coffee is then milled and sorted before being placed in bags, ready for shipping.
