Meet The Producers

Ramirez Vasquez Oscar, Idrogo Gallardo Marcos and Augusto Torres own small farms based in the San Antonio Village in Huabal, a region within the Jaén province of Cajamarca. The lot is made up of exclusively Caturra and Catuai which perform well in the high altitudes of the highlands of Cajamarca.

Harvesting & Processing

Coffee was carefully hand harvested on each of the three farms and left to rest/ferment in sacks overnight. In the morning the coffee was pulped using a hand pulper to remove the outer layer of fruit. The coffee was then dried on raised african style beds and moved regularly to ensure even drying.
