RD2 Vision Lab genetic testing, prompted by UK-based Scenery Coffee, revealed the variety to be Fragrancia — a crossbreed of Sidra and Catimor. Remarkably, the hybridisation has fully tamed the allium quality typical of Sidra ancestry, instead highlighting intense florality and layered berry complexity. In the cup, complex berry notes range from blueberry to raspberry, underpinned by aggressive orange blossom aromatics, with jasmine, magnolia, and bergamot rounding out a structured, expressive profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLuis Edgar Camacho has been growing coffee at La Palma in Palestina since 2014, originally exporting through Caravella before transitioning to LaREB on the recommendation of a trusted colleague, Lizardo Herrera.
