There is just one mistake, Villa Sarchi is not derived from Caturra, Villa Sarchi is a dwarf mutant derived directly from Bourbon. It was found in the 1940s in a small coffee growing village in Costa Rica called Sarchi hence its name. Best regards, Gonzalo Hello,

I will ask Gabriel about Acaia and Canario. We recently cupped another ''new'' one from Brazil called Ruby - not impressed enough on that table to go forward but icatu, canario and acaia have all found their followings and I think they all have the potential to be the next 'recognised' varietal purchase after bourbon. Bring me another glass of shiraz (syrah) he cried!! good job - you should write a book. all the best slh Hi James

It includes timelines, methods of transport and some records of who was responsible for the geographical move or creation of new varietal. i have a pretty extensive breakdown in digital format from Anacafe, I’ll try to find it and send it to you.
