Farm Overview:
This coffee is from smallholders in the high-altitude areas around Jaén, the main city in the Cajamarca region of northern Peru. The region’s rich volcanic soils, tropical rainfall, and ideal climate create significant potential for high-quality Arabica coffee.
These smallholder producers harvest coffee during the middle of the season and process it on their farms using hand-pulping machines, fermentation tanks, and patios or raised beds for drying. Once processed, the parchment coffee is delivered to Falcon’s (our import partner) warehouse in Jaén, where it undergoes grading, moisture testing, sample roasting, and cupping.
In 2018, Falcon Peru SARL was established as an export company, along with a small warehouse and quality control lab in Jaén. This has helped producers improve drying practices, Falcon installed facilities near the warehouse to ensure optimum moisture levels and preserve cup quality. Farmers delivering their parchment coffee receive immediate quality analysis, a cup score, and an offer price.
We hope you enjoy this coffee as much as we are.
