The cup sparkles with red fruit notations of raspberry, cranberry and pomegranate — a bright, crisp profile full of dried cherry sweetness, with a body that is light and long-finishing with florals and red tea leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expression of Pacamara is so uniquely characteristic of Terrazas del Pisque: clean, vibrant, and utterly distinctive.

The farm spans 39 hectares at 2,000–2,080 MASL, with 17 hectares dedicated to coffee production. Around 10,000 trees grow across a range of varieties including Red \u0026amp; Yellow Caturra, Pacamara, Las Tolas, Bourbon, Java and Sidra.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTerrazas del Pisque has established itself as one of Ecuador's most thoughtfully run farms. Their biodynamic, regenerative approach — chickens to combat larvae, Pelibuey sheep for grazing and fertilisation, homemade charcoal returned to the soil — has produced measurable improvements in both cup quality and farm resilience. A full stop on chemical inputs and a commitment to letting nature work is at the heart of everything here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a decade of experience behind them, Sebastian and Arnaud continue to develop the farm's production and quality year on year. Terrazas del Pisque stands as an incubator of elusive and exotic Ecuadorian varietals — and the Pacamara is among its finest achievements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Washed process at Terrazas del Pisque involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍒 \u003cstrong\u003eSelective Harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e — Sebastian picks only the ripest cherries at peak maturation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eFloating \u0026amp; Sorting\u003c\/strong\u003e — cherries are floated to remove over- and under-ripes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e💧 \u003cstrong\u003eWashing\u003c\/strong\u003e — cherries are rinsed with clean water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔧 \u003cstrong\u003eDe-pulping\u003c\/strong\u003e — fruit skin is mechanically removed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🧪 \u003cstrong\u003eFermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e — parchment ferments in tanks for 48 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e☀️ \u003cstrong\u003eRaised Bed Drying\u003c\/strong\u003e — dried for 15–18 days depending on weather conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe process is designed to highlight the natural intensity and red-fruit character of the Pacamara variety, producing a cup of crystalline clarity and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBright and sparkling with red fruit from the first sip, the Pacamara from Terrazas del Pisque is a distinctive and rewarding cup.
