MONOGRAM - Takesi Yellow Catuai | Bolivia - Washed - Yellow Catuai

Yellow Catuai is a classic Latin American variety—often dependable, but rarely described as exciting. But Takesi has a way of reshaping expectations. Here, this well-known variety is elevated into something elegant, floral, and quietly complex.

The farm’s unique environment and slow ripening process coax more nuance out of the cherries, allowing delicate sugar development and soft acidity to shine. It still has the comfort of a sweet, well-balanced cup, but with surprising notes of plum and flowers that linger.

This lot reminds us that sometimes the most familiar varieties can be the most surprising—when grown with care, at the right place, and in the right hands.
