Copacabana is the most rural of the three villages and can only loosely be considered that. It seems more like a meandering series of 35 families that cluster down a mountain ridge. Sitting in the mountains just north of the town of Caranavi by 30 miles, you understand the indigenous meaning of “Peaceful Place with a Good View”. These are pretty small farms of just 1 to 5 hectares each, so most of the requirements of the farm and harvesting is carried out by family members. The settlement of Copacabana brings a sense of community where you often find a collaborative approach when neighboring farmers are in need of help. This support system has paid off well and the coffee is rich and delicious. There is a spiced element to a densely weighted chocolate that keeps you grounded as subtle blackberry and cherry try to surface through a pool of cream. Sweet and round, the dynamics of depth on this one is so comforting.
