Efren Diaz has produced a classic profile that displays the greatness of Narino. At 2,000 masl, His farm is planted with Colombia, Caturra, and Castillo varietals which helps make this a quintessential Colombia offering that’s complete in structure. Like an ever-echoing, freshly struck gong, it’s the sweetness that saturates this experience. For Efren’s coffee, this looks like sheer curtains of cantaloupe that ornately outline apricot and yellow cherry spiraling into a caramel quicksand. With a movement like satiny syrup, a whisper of lemongrass, and a generous dusting of cocoa, we’re led beyond the cascading caramel to the comforts of a frangipane galette and fresh cream that allows us to gather ourselves for a moment. Sturdy and dynamic, La Victoria will reverberate with sweetness, endlessly.
