Loja

2 coffees

Loja is a high-altitude coffee-growing region in southern Ecuador, located in the Andes Mountains at elevations between 1,400-2,200 meters, which contributes to its exceptional cup quality. The region's cool mountain climate, volcanic soils, and significant rainfall create ideal conditions for producing specialty-grade arabica coffee with complex flavor profiles featuring notes of chocolate, citrus, and floral characteristics. Loja is recognized as one of Ecuador's premier coffee origins and has gained international recognition for producing coffees with excellent balance, acidity, and distinctive terroir expression.
