LCC Roastery

Taste note: Raw nut flavors, milk chocolate and raisin note, with a soft lemon acidity

The coffee is from within the San Ignacio District, Cajamarca, a region known for producing specialty grade coffee. This is a fully washed coffee, practice just like it’s neighbour Colombia, a speciality coffee powerhouse in Southern America.

The ground coffee has a clean scent of brown sugar and hazelnut. The addition of hot water pulls out sugar browning sweetness, toffee nut smells, candied roasted almonds. The tasty milk chocolate flavor is obvious, the cooled cup showing a muted raisin note. Light roasts have soft lemon acidity that’s really a nice feature as well.

Traceability / Repeatability / Sustainability

This coffee is sourced from Sweet Marias. They prefer to work in a more direct way to identify single farmers or small groups to import, and then work with mills and exporters to get the coffee intact. They have been started doing that since 2006. More info about Sweet Maria’s work in Peru can be found here https://legacy.sweetmarias.com/library/peru/

The group in the La Palma community are one of several who together have formed a coffee farmer’s alliance, “Finca Santuario”. The goal of this association is to aggregate resources in order to not only gain the small farmer transparent access to the global market, but also work as a collective to increase their coffee’s value by planting cultivars with cup quality in mind, and improve harvest techniques as well as processing and drying conditions.
