The coffee story
Farm: Finca Las Flores
Location: Santa Rosa de Alto Katari, Pangoa, Satipo province, Junin region
Altitude: 1668m.a.s.l.
Process: Washed
Finca Las Flores was founded in 2006, when we began planting Caturra, Typica and Bourbon trees. We are located at 1.5 hours from the Santa Rosa del Alto Kiatari village in the Independencia sector in the Pangoa district and we are surrounded by forest. On the way to the farm you will see the famous Gallito de las Rocas (Cock of the Rocks), parrots, and different wild species. Our first crop was harvested in 2009 and it was pretty small: only 10 quintales.
Our farm has won local, national and international renoun. We have been awarded for our differentiated cup quality by winning the 2nd place in the Chanchamayo FICAFE, the 8th place in Peru's Cup of Excellence 2017, and the 3rd place in the AVPA 2017 Paris contest in the category of Citric Aromatic Roasted Coffee.
I am part of the second generation of the Flores family, who came from the Andean zone, to be involved in coffee. We run all the farm with organic fertlizers and matter. To bring the coffee to the road we installed a tube where we send the coffee beans with pulp to a lower altitude base where they will be fermented, washed, dried and stored.
The process
Washed and dried for 8 days on raised beds in a polytunnel.
