Juan Navia’s coffee hails from the remarkable elevations of Bolivia, where cool temperatures and extended ripening seasons foster exceptional quality. At an astonishing 2000 meters above sea level, Juan’s farm is situated at the very edge of what’s possible for coffee cultivation. While the altitude presents significant risks of frost and potential crop loss, the payoff is spectacular when conditions are right. This high elevation slows the maturation of the coffee cherries, developing a remarkable sweetness and complexity that sets his coffee apart.
This is Monogram’s first year purchasing coffee from Juan Navia, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. His coffee has already made waves locally, winning several cupping competitions for its distinctive flavours. We are honoured to be part of his journey and to bring his outstanding coffee to our customers for the first time. Juan’s dedication to quality and the unique growing environment make his coffee a standout addition to our offerings.
The high-altitude conditions on Juan’s farm contribute to the exceptional flavour profile of this coffee. The tasting notes are a beautiful balance of black tea, delicate florals, and caramel sweetness. With every sip, you’ll experience the result of careful cultivation in one of the most challenging yet rewarding coffee-growing environments in the world.
