Roast Profile: Espresso Roast Degree: Light Juan José Huillca’s Bourbon coffee from Finca Cedruyoc in the Calca subregion of Cusco, Peru, is a standout example of meticulous farming and innovative processing. Grown at 1,850 metres above sea level on a 2.5-hectare steep, rocky farm, this coffee benefits from conditions that reduce disease and drought stress, concentrating sugars in the cherries for enhanced sweetness and complexity. Juan José applies a scientific approach to cultivation and processing, utilising tools like pH meters and refractometers to optimise fermentation. This lot undergoes a distinctive double fermentation: first, cherries ferment ‘in cherry’ for 48 hours, then after pulping, they ferment for an additional 36 hours. This 84-hour process contributes to its unique flavour profile. Processed using the fully washed method and dried carefully on covered raised beds for around 18 days, the coffee preserves clarity and brightness. At Fjord, we love this espresso roast’s vibrant notes of papaya, red apple, and tropical fruits. The light roast highlights the Bourbon variety’s natural sweetness and juicy acidity, making it a complex yet approachable cup. Juan José’s commitment to sustainable practices, including the use of bioles—organic liquid fertilisers created through anaerobic fermentation—supports the health of the farm and surrounding community. His role in the Valle Inca network ensures that quality and fair pricing benefit over 400 local producers, fostering sustainable livelihoods and continuous farm investment. This coffee is an excellent choice for those seeking a lively, fruit-forward espresso with a story rooted in careful stewardship and scientific care from Peru’s highlands. 250g €/kg: 83.6€ | 1kg €/kg: 75.9€ All coffees come as whole beans.If you need a coffee grinder we highly recommend purchasing the Fellow Ode Grinder.
