We remain floored by the fruity, tangy, and wild El Sauce, but also realized that we were missing some of the sweet, full-bodied, approachable goodness we’ve enjoyed from Ecuador in the past. Enter Cerro Ahuaca.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Cerro Ahuaca mountain dominates the horizon near the town of Cariamanga, in Southern Ecuador, easily visible from any hilltop nearby. The area has huge potential, but with tiny farms, we rely on Roberto Jimenez at Capamaco Trading to seek out and blend coffees from multiple farms.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis year a few of the farms began experimenting with yeast fermentations, similar to El Sauce. But just a few - a much greater portion still employ a traditional washed process. The result is still a classic Latin American coffee profile, just with a bit more complexity and fruit than last year.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhile we can’t guarantee both will be around for the same amount of time, we highly recommend trying El Sauce and Cerro Ahuaca next to each other while you can - a bit of the far out in the Sauce, and a more expected cup here. As far as Cerro goes, we’re tasting toffee, fig, and candy apple in our cups. Great on its own, or with a splash of milk.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-9fac9cfb-7fff-cef3-5e71-2011bd44fd5d\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e*** For roasting schedule, shipping, receiving \u0026amp; additional information, please visit out \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/huckleberryroasters.com\/pages\/faq\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/a\u003e .
