Importer Notes


Byron's motivation to promote and gain recognition for his farm led him to develop this process. The double fermentation enhances the attributes of this coffee, which is why he named it "Baluarte," meaning stronghold, as it strengthens the notes of pineapple, honey, and strawberries. Byron aims to convey strength through his coffee and invites us to learn more about it.


Byron, a youth leader in Sonson, promotes education and a passion for coffee among young farmers.
