This Pacas varietal from Valley Heart Ranch is our first offering from
Darrell & Kirsten Becker. Nestled between mountain and sea, this
organic orchard is composed of 5 acres of coffee growing on fertile
loam soil layered by beautiful stone wall terraces. The dynamic cup
quality carries a tasty sweetness of white chocolates along with a
buttery mouthfeel and a tight balance of a lemony citrus reminiscent of a Riesling. We expect Valley Heart Ranch to set new standards
amongst the upper echelons of the coffee world for a long time.
