Rest Vilcabamba, Ecuador
Generations of scientists and doctors have already tried to find 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 as an elixir of life. Or it is the particularly good air, purified by the mysterious plant Huilco, which gives people extraordinary powers. A clear explanation could never be found. All that is certain is that in this place, far from the daily hustle and bustle and stress, visitors from all over the world come to rest and let themselves be infected by the harmonious togetherness 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 for themselves. For this, the families pick only the ripe, red coffee cherries at harvest time between June and October, which are washed in the water of the nearby mountain rivers and freed from their pulp. Afterwards, the coffee cherries are slowly dried in the sun and carefully sorted by hand. The result is coffee of outstanding quality.
As the cultivation of coffee in Vilcabamba is primarily manual work and a "family affair", only small quantities of this coffee are produced year after year.
Freshly roasted, Vilcabamba impresses the coffee connoisseur at first with its wine-like refreshing aroma, its intense flavour, its syrupy body and its balanced acidity.
