A familiar face on the awards podium, Diva Maria was a finalist in one of the earliest versions of the Copa de Oro competition back in 2020. Since then, the competition has expanded to include more regions and farmers, but she has consistently remained among the best. This washed bourbon ají variety lot earned her seventh place overall in the most recent Copa de Oro competition held last fall. We taste juicy strawberry and melon in the cup alongside sweet vanilla and nougat, with an elegantly floral finish that reminds us of lemon verbena or chamomile.
