Coffee producer: ARBILDO PARRA CHARLES MARLON
Farm Story:
This Finca is located at 1900 m.s.n.m 10 minutes from the chirinos district. Formerly a mountainous zone that was consumed by the fire that initiated a neighbor and the farm was consumed in its totality. Even so it counts on a strip of zone of mountain in which leaves a slope of water.
The farm was given in inheritance to the current producer, who requested a credit for the planting of a portion of coffee. Being in a privileged area decided to invest and plant varieties of quality (caturra, pache, Bourbón, via sarchi) in order to be able to have a good quality in cup.
The farm makes a selective harvest and a fermented 26 hours process. The coffee is dried in solar dryers to take care of the quality grains produced by Finca La Palma.
