Sweet coffee with notes of garden berries, stone fruit & vanilla biscuits. Organic.

Damian is a second-generation coffee farmer and has been producing coffee since 2002. On his Finca La Palma, he grows Bourbon and Caturra. He was inspired to cultivate specialty coffee after one of his neighbours won a coffee competition. This has borne fruit, and in 2018 Damian placed 2nd in the Cup Of Excellence.

Peru has been on our radar ever since 2012 when our owner Robert first started our sister company Collaborative Coffee Source. There is access to many fantastic coffee lots there, but it has previously not been possible to find micro-lots with traceability down to individual farms.

This coffee is purchased through Origin Coffee Lab, a young company based in Cajamarca. It was established by Alex Julca and José Rivera, also known as Pepe, who are from the area and know it well. Alex grew up on a coffee farm and has extensive experience as a cupper, having worked with quality control for one of the largest cooperatives in the region. Pepe is the son of a coffee exporter and spent most of his childhood at a dry mill. He also brings expertise in roasting, having worked for several well-established coffee roasters in the States.
