Lucio Florencio Delgado Romo
We find flavours of passionfruit, pineapple, brown sugar
Lucio was planting different vegetable crops before his neighbours recommended he switch to coffee. Through a bank loan Lucio first acquired the farm, and was able to pay this off through his income earned from the coffee production. Lucio works on the farm with his wife and their several farm hands. His children are currently undergoing their studies. Lucio believes in fertilising his plants well making them stronger, healthier and ready to fight off diseases such as Roya.

Machines are used to remove the flesh from the coffee cherry before being fermented in water, washed again, and finally sun dried. This process tends to result in more distinct, cleaner flavours.
