Roaster's Comment

This is the second Ecuador release from Rurukuna Inc.—a Sidra variety lot from Lugumapata Farm.

This coffee has an exceptionally unique flavor profile. It opens with fresh fruit impressions reminiscent of green apple and pear, followed by a refreshing yet gently fermented, milky character that brings to mind aloe yogurt. As it develops, a deep, tropical sweetness like ripe mango emerges.
The overall flavor volume is generous, with a rush of diverse fruit notes coming one after another—there’s no time to pause, as the profile continues to shift and unfold with every sip.

While it’s clear that fermentation plays a role in shaping these flavors, achieving such a distinctive profile through a washed process is remarkable. This may be attributed to the Sidra variety itself, combined with Ecuador’s truly one-of-a-kind terroir.

Ecuador is a country we haven’t had many opportunities to introduce until now, but it has certainly become one we’re eager to explore further.
We hope you’ll look forward to future releases from this exciting origin.

 

Factory's Note

The Pallatanga region is surrounded by volcanoes, including Chimborazo, the highest mountain in Ecuador. It lies along a corridor that connects the volcanic highlands to the coastal regions, and the presence of volcanoes feels especially close—so close that volcanic ash can sometimes settle on the coffee leaves. Because of this, the soil is said to offer an exceptionally favorable environment for coffee cultivation.

The land was originally used as a hacienda, beginning as a dairy farm in the 1930s. Around 2010, coffee trees were planted for the first time. At the beginning, coffee was grown without a strong intention to pursue specialty quality. However, everything changed in 2016, when the farm reached its first harvest and placed third in the Taza Dorada competition that same year. That moment sparked a deep passion for coffee.

Since then, the producers have devoted themselves to studying coffee and actively experimenting with a wide range of processing methods.

About Yamato Toujiki

Arita, one of the most prestigious pottery producing regions of Japan, has been playing a fundamental role in providing trusty products to support Japanese culinary culture for more than 400 years. Among the manufacturers we met in Arita, Yamato Toujiki is one that was flexible and open to new designs and ideas, while still embracing traditional techniques.

The craftspeople there are truly meticulous in their work, not overlooking even the slightest difference in shape and carefully finishing each piece one by one.

As we went though countless prototypes, their professional inputs such as “this thickness tends to deform after firing” or “the angle of this curve could be adjusted a little more” has given us many new perspectives to give the design we envisioned an actual shape.

The precision in the craftspeople’s work we witnessed on our visit to Arita was truly remarkable. How they used potter’s wheel so naturally like breathing, and how a beautiful shape emerges from it- the moment we saw it, we realized that we are not just making something but also passing on this culture of the art.

Another thing that stuck with us was the atmosphere of the workshop. It was quiet but full of energy at the same time, the air filled with history and a proud craftspersonship.

“You never know until it comes out of the oven” they said- that’s why they treat each and every piece with such attention and precision, making adjustment along the way as needed. In their such work ethics we saw a shared sense of pursuing the ideal with our product designing process.

Kyoto Series is a product born through the hands of such craftspeople- it would be our pleasure if you could feel the warmth of human touch and their stories as you sip.
