This rich and syrupy microlot comes from Los Romerillos, a farming collective surrounding the small highland town of Zumba, Ecuador. Historically, the inhabitants of this small town made their living from the sale of fine wood from a type of tree called Romerillos. These people, who used to dedicate their lives to selling wood, decided a few years ago to become coffee growers, but kept the name of the vereda Los Romerillos as a reference to their past. Zumba is also home to an annual coffee fair - Bracamoros Coffee, which showcases the very best in local Ecuadorian coffee and incentivizes the production of specialty coffee in the region, as well as the entire country.
