    La Comarca is a small, family-run farm just south of Loja, near the warm Malacatos valley. It’s a region known for its climate extremes - wet and humid in the rainy season, then dry and unforgiving for the rest of the year. These swings pose real challenges for coffee production, but Daniel and his family have steadily found ways to adapt, producing some exceptional small lots in the process.

    At the moment, the farm grows only Sidra, a varietal known for its complexity and depth. Their first Gesha trees are now in the ground too - early signs of a promising next chapter. This lot is a naturally processed Sidra, grown and dried on-site at La Comarca.

    Name Isadora Maldonado (La Comarca)
    Location Malacatos, Loja, Ecuador See on a map

    La Comarca is a small family run farm which focuses on high scoring micro and nano lots. Located a few minutes south from the city of Loja, close to the hot valley of Malacatos. The climate in the farm can be very wet and humid during the rainy season and very dry in the rest of the year. These factors can be challenging for maintaining the coffee in optimum conditions. Nonetheless, Daniel and his family have managed to obtain some mind blowing lots.

    Currently, only Sidra is produced at the farm but soon their newly planted Gesha plants will start fruiting too.
