The coffee story
Farm: Finca Santa Rosa
Location: Aroma del Valle, Chontali province, Cajamarca region
Altitude: 1670m.a.s.l.
Process: washed
Finca Santa Rosa has been growing coffee since 1992. I started solely with Typica. As time passed, I started investing in more productive varieties such as Catimor, Bourbon and Caturra. I also planted some Pacamara trees which due to the high cup quality. The coffee trees are surrounded by old trees of Pacae and Eucalyptus. In the beginning, we grew coffee below 1200 masl. Due to the permanent rain, we migrated to a higher area at 1700 masl two years ago. We also have an area for lifestock when we never lack milk for our cup of coffee!
The farm is located at only 5 minutes from the capital of the district of Chontali. I am the third generation of my family to be a coffee farmer and have been doing this all my life. I inherited my grandfather's passion for quality and my father’s strength to expand the production. I have always worked as an independent producer and figured things out by myself. I changed from Typicas and Catimors, for example, because they are not profitable enough to compensate my family's effort. This is why now I changed my focus to high-quality specialty coffee and agrotourism.

Shipping
Once the ordering period ends we will consolidate all coffees in a shared container. During transport, your coffee is fully insured. We will keep you informed about the shipment status.
Upon arrival of the coffee at the warehouse, you can choose between 2 delivery modes:
- Doorstep delivery: We will take care of transport to your roastery. We will provide your coffee fully insured until it is ready for unloading from the truck at your roastery.

Currently, we can deliver coffee anywhere in Europe, except Hungary. For all European buyers, the coffee will be provided custom cleared in any case. Roasters in Switzerland choosing EXW will be responsible for customs clearance.
