This is a superb coffee, with an intense yet refined aroma, excellent body with the hint of cocoa undertones.
Cuba is synonymous with premium quality Cigars & Coffee so it was inevitable that the world-famous cigar brands of Montecristo & Cohiba have introduced coffee to their portfolio.
The Isabelica Plantation of Gran Piedra where this coffee is grown has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO (the only coffee plantation in the world to receive this accolade).
At over 1,000 meters above sea level surrounded by hardwood trees, the coffee plants develop under the shade of the leafy trees that provide a natural refuge for rare birds making the almost inaccessible region into a Biosphere Reserve. The exceptional conditions to be found in this small area ensure that we are getting something rare and special with these bird-friendly gourmet coffees.
Due to the size of the plantation involved, these products can never be mass retailed and are only available via specially selected partners.
