Characterized by rugged, steep terrain and high altitudes, only a small number of highly skilled farmers are able to successfully cultivate coffee here. Most production is carried out through collaboration between smallholder farmers and cooperatives, working together to overcome the challenges of this remarkable landscape. In areas like Buesaco, warm air rises from the canyon at night, creating a protective thermal layer for coffee trees growing on the mountaintops. This allows the trees to absorb solar energy during the day while remaining active at night, promoting flowering and extending the coffee cherry maturation period—key factors in developing complex and high-quality flavors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Producer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLuis Fernando Benavides has been in the coffee industry for over a decade.
