"This coffee is attractive with the floral falvor of washed coffee. The subtle fruity flavor of Shine Muscat and the sweetness of acacia honey are the base, and the aftertaste is impressive, like drinking peach oolong tea. I recommend you try it.
 
San Agustin is a prestigious Ecuadorian farm that has been in operation for three generations. It started in 1983 under the name La Rosita by the first-generation owner, Augusto.
 
At the time, they were growing various crops together, but in 2013, Mr Augusto, who had a passion for coffee, converted to a specialty coffee farm so that his family could live a more affluent life, and this wasa the beginning of a major change. Sadly, Mr. Augusto passed away in 2017, but his granson Alfonso currently runs the farm, following his grandfather's will, and changed the name of the farm to the current name, San Agustin to honor his grandfather.
 
High-quality coffee and the passion for coffee that has been passed down through the family since the grandfather are still hot. This is an Ecuadorian farm with a promising future thanks to Alfonso, who is constantly researching advanced farming methods without stopping at the present."
