A Fascinating Evolution The return of the El Morito "Caturro" (Yellow Caturro) marks a fascinating milestone in our second year of direct trade with this exceptional farm. While last season’s harvest was a classic representation of a high-grown profile, the 2025-2026 collection has shifted toward a strikingly exotic and tropical character.

Defying Expectations This lot stands as a true anomaly for the variety. Defying the standard expectations of a Caturro, it offers a level of crystalline clarity and unconventional flavor complexity that is typically reserved for much rarer cultivars. By utilizing the farm's unique high-altitude environment, this Caturro has been transformed from a traditional staple into an exotic masterpiece.

The Cup Profile The tasting experience is defined by its vibrant, botanical energy and a remarkably clean structure. The palate opens with a lush and bright base of dragonfruit, beautifully complemented by elegant and distinctive purple daisy florals. The cup concludes with a lingering, sophisticated aftertaste of white strawberry.
