Guided by the ancestral traditions of the Incahuasi cooperative, the couple Eudis Orosco and Victoria Atao cultivate coffee in total symbiosis with the Peruvian ecosystem, applying the principles of Inca agroforestry rhythmic with the cycles of the moon.

On their two plots, Bella Vista and Finca Paulette, they have managed to rehabilitate the Geisha Inca (a local mutation of the Ethiopian variety SL9), once neglected for its low productivity but now enhanced by high altitude cultivation.

Their approach is based on deep community collaboration, inherited from the concepts of Minka and Ayni (collective work and mutual aid), allowing them to transform ancestral expertise into an exceptional coffee while preserving the biodiversity and social fabric of their community.

For this batch, the cherries undergo a dry fermentation process for 24 to 36 hours in their own mucilage. This environmentally friendly method, favored by the cool climate which stabilizes the aromas, is followed by a final washing.

In the cup, this coffee reveals a profile of great elegance: it opens with delicate and profound notes of black tea, before giving way to the lively acidity of raspberry and pomegranate. This fruity complexity is perfectly balanced by the juicy sweetness of mandarin, offering a sensory experience that is both vibrant and harmonious.
