Justino Huaman

Highlights

“We are blessed by the fruits of Peru this year, and here's a lovely new SL-9 from producer Justino Huamán, one of our final releases from the 2025 Peruvian harvest. This coffee has shown a bit of all fruits depending on the cup, but the mango and citrus are prominent. This one went out to our monthly subscribers first, now available to all! Justino's farm Finca Limonniyoc has been growing typica and bourbon varieties for 15 years, and geisha just for the last five years. Their drying area receives natural shade from pacay and other native trees. They use traditional methods such as pack animals to transport their coffee down from their perch at 2100 meters, a journey that takes two to three hours. After harvesting only ripe cherries, the coffee was pulped, leaving just part of the mucilage intact. Following a brief fermentation, the coffee was washed and then dried on raised beds over 15-20 days.”
