Peru Mikan

13 GBP

A classic washed Peru. Smooth and versatile, with dark chocolate and citrus notes, think chocolate orange with hints of Earl Grey, G&T, and crisp green apple. This blend is sourced from producers in the high-altitude regions surrounding Jaén, the main city of Cajamarca in northern Peru. Rich volcanic soils, tropical rainfall, and an ideal climate combine to create exceptional conditions for high-quality Arabica coffee. In 2018, Falcon Peru established an SARL export company in Jaén, alongside a small warehouse and quality control lab. To further support producers, Falcon installed dedicated drying facilities near the warehouse, helping ensure optimal moisture levels and preserve cup quality. 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 warehouse in Jaén, where it undergoes grading, moisture testing, roasting, and cupping.
