  • About Elzer Garcia | Peru

    Elzer Garcia began growing coffee in 2015, inspired by the success of coffee cultivation in neighbouring areas. He started with a trial planting of just 100 plants and has expanded the plantation to around 7,000 plants across nearly two hectares. Elzer also maintains Pajuro trees throughout the farm to provide natural shade.

    The harvest is carried out entirely by hand, with the help of local villagers. The cherries are pulped and then fermented in tanks for 48 hours before being washed and moved to the drying area.

    Following fermentation, the coffee is transferred to the drying area, where the beans are spread in thin layers and turned several times a day to ensure even drying. Particular care is taken to protect the coffee from overnight moisture and sudden changes in the weather, allowing it to dry slowly and evenly until it reaches the ideal moisture content. This patient, attentive approach preserves the physical quality of the beans and brings out their best attributes in the cup

    Tasting notes include red grape, maple syrup and milk chocolate

The Producer

Elzer Garcia

Elzer Garcia began growing coffee in 2015, inspired by the success of coffee cultivation in neighbouring areas. He started with a trial planting of just 100 plants, and once he saw how well they adapted to his land and the quality of yield they produced, he expanded the plantation to around 7,000 plants across nearly two hectares.

Coffee Origin

Peru 🇵🇪

Peruvian coffee has amazing flavour diversity and the altitude and processing tends to dictate the types of flavours on offer. Discover more about its history, processing methods and flavours on our Peru coffee guide.

Processing Method

Extended Ferment Washed

The extended ferment-washed process is an evolution of the traditional method that prolongs the fermentation stage. By extending contact time between the bean and fruit sugars, producers develop deeper complexity and sweetness while retaining the signature clarity of a washed cup.

Coffee Varietal

Caturra

A natural mutation of Bourbon discovered in Brazil in the early 20th century, Caturra became hugely popular across Central and South America owing to its compact size and high yield. It adapts well to intensive farming and produces a bright, lively cup with good acidity. However, it is demanding on the soil and requires significant fertilisation to sustain productivity, and it remains vulnerable to coffee leaf rust.
