From La Josefina in Ecuador’s Amazonian region — a farm of remarkable location, progressive technique, and striking clarity.La Josefina is nestled between Sumaco and Cayambe-Coca National Parks, nourished by volcanic ash from El Reventador, where founders Leopoldo Andrade and Ligia Merizalde have built one of Ecuador’s most forward-thinking farms.Following a saline wash and 24-hour fermentation, cherries are slowly dried for around 35 days on shaded African raised beds inside polytunnels — a controlled and even process led by specialist Juan David Benavidez.Mango and strawberry jam lead with tropical generosity, almond arriving on the finish with a rounded, warm sweetness.
