The coffee story
This coffee was short-listed by the Cup of Excellence (CoE) jury in Peru this year. It was cupped 4 times by an experienced team selected by Central de Café y Cacao, the organization behind the local CoE chapter, in Lima in preparation for the auction. This lot didn't make it to the international phase. However, this is an outstanding coffee amongst the best the country can offer! Dofan's coffee is being offered exclusively to roasters in Europe for direct sales for the first time this harvest. The initiative is being coordinated by Algrano in partnership with Central de Café y Cacao and Pachamama Inversiones with support from the Alliance for Coffee Excellence (ACE).
Farmer name: Dofan Willian Patilla Pineda
Farm: Finca Machaychiyoc
Region: Calca Province, Cusco Region
" I inherited Finca Machaychiyoc from my parents in the year 2000 and have been managing it with passion ever since. My plot is at an altitude of 2000 meters above sea level. When I first got here the area looked like a dry forest. Over the years I have been working and turning it into healthy farmland. I also have pasture in some sectors. My farm is in the Mapacho River basin that borders the Manu National Park and it is also a buffer zone of the National Sanctuary del Megantoni, which is located in the Ccorimayo-Quillipata sector of the Yanatile District, Calca Province, Cusco Department.
In 2000 I planted my first coffee trees of the Typica variety and due to the presence of yellow rust I decided to change to other varieties I found are more resistant such as Bourbon, Catimor, Caturra, etc. In recent years, with the help of some projects managed by the Yanatile municipality, I have been improving and teaching myself with passion about specialty coffee.
In 2018 I started to dedicate 1 hectare of the farm to specialty coffee. I also built solar dryers with diamond mesh beds. With the support of the project technicians, I also started to work on fermentation process."
