Sweet apple, toffee like caramel and black tea
About this coffee:
Guacamaya is mainly planted with the traditional Red Bourbon and Yellow Caturra varieties, with Pache introduced in more recent years. This lot is 100% Caturra. Nery farms with traditional techniques and organic practices, as is common in the region. Coffee pulp is recycled and dried to be used as fertiliser, and sedimentary tanks are employed to treat the water used during processing. All weeding is done manually, and few chemical pesticides or fertilisers are utilised — though fungicide is applied before flowering, to prevent roya outbreaks. The coffee is selectively hand-harvested, with most labour being provided by Nery and his family.
