Rast Vilcabamba, Ecuador
Generations of scientists and doctors have already tried to uncover the secret of longevity in Vilcabamba. Perhaps the ideal climate between 18 and 22 degrees and the mineral-rich water of the two rivers Vilcabamba and Chamba act like an elixir of life. Or perhaps it is the particularly good air, purified by the mysterious Huilco plant, which gives people extraordinary powers. A clear explanation has never been found. The only thing that is certain is that in this place, far away from the daily hustle and bustle and stress, visitors from all over the world come to relax and let themselves be infected by the harmonious coexistence and joie de vivre of the people of Vilcabamba.
The small farmers of Vilcabamba grow the best Arabica coffee on the mountain slopes of this magical place, which is also a luxury food of great value to them. At harvest time between June and October, the families pick only the ripe, red coffee cherries, which are washed in the water of the nearby mountain rivers and their pulp removed. The coffee cherries are then slowly dried in the sun and carefully sorted by hand. The result is a coffee of outstanding quality.
As the cultivation of coffee in Vilcabamba is primarily manual labour and a "family affair", only small quantities of this coffee are produced each year.
Freshly roasted, Vilcabamba first impresses the coffee connoisseur with its wine-like, refreshing aroma, intense flavour, syrupy body and balanced acidity.

Fresh Service: This coffee is freshly roasted for you every Monday and shipped two days later.
Some companies take a short break during the public holidays. It is therefore possible that your order will not be dispatched until after the holidays. Thank you for your understanding
We recommend that espresso roasts be used 12 days after the roast date or filter coffees 5 days after the roast date found on the package. Freshly roasted coffee needs this time until it is ready for a constant extraction.
We ask that the order is always sent before 23:59 on Sunday, so that we can ensure a shipment on the following Wednesday.
