North Star
Brown Butter • Amaretto • Blackberry
This year’s North Star is brought to you by a single producer… Elmer Mego. His farm is located in the Santo Tomás District of Cutervo about five hours from Jaen the main coffee hub for the region. Elmer Mego is a new relationship for Merit and this lot is an exclusive offering. He runs his farm alongside of his family and 4 children. (We will offer his daughter Veronica Mego’s coffee in April!)
One of the sweetest coffees we’ve cupped from Cajamarca, Elmer’s coffee is extremely balanced with deep notes of plum and blackberry. Can’t wait for y’all to try it!
