AWAKEN AMBITION
Nestled in the central mountains of Puerto Rico, Jayuya is a region known for producing high-quality, specialty coffee with a distinctive and well-balanced flavor profile. With elevations ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 feet (450 to 900 meters) above sea level, this mountainous terrain provides the perfect microclimate for growing exceptional Arabica coffee. The combination of fertile volcanic soil, steady rainfall, and cool temperatures allows coffee cherries to develop slowly, resulting in richer, more complex flavors.
Flavor Profile
Smooth body, balanced acidity, and naturally sweet notes. The region’s unique terroir contributes to a cup that is both delicate and bold, often featuring:
-
Hints of tropical fruit – such as mango, citrus, or guava
-
Sweet caramel and brown sugar undertones – giving it a natural richness
-
Mild nutty and cocoa notes – adding depth and a velvety finish
-
Floral and honey-like aromas – enhancing its smooth and aromatic experience
Processing & Quality
Washed (wet) processing, which helps maintain the clarity and brightness of the flavors. Hand-picking and careful sorting ensure that only the ripest cherries make it into the final product, maintaining premium quality and consistency.
To fully appreciate the complexity of Jayuya coffee, try these brewing methods:
-
Pour-over (V60, Chemex, Kalita Wave) – highlights its floral notes and fruit-forward acidity
