Los Bracamoros is sourced from the provinces of Jaen and San Ignacio in Cajamarca, Peru. Grown by small-scale farmers, each lot is home-processed, with the cherries picked, processed, and dried by individual producers before being delivered to the Chacra Coffee warehouse in Jaen for blending. The producers in this region typically cultivate a mix of Catimor, Caturra, and Bourbon varieties, with some older farms still preserving Typica plants.
The average farm size is around 2 hectares, and most farmers avoid herbicides, preferring to manually weed their crops. This is partly due to the integration of coffee with other vegetable crops for personal consumption. Coffee cherries are processed through fermentation, with some producers using raised beds and parabolic dryers to improve quality. Once dried, the beans are carefully blended to create a well-rounded, flavourful cup that reflects the traditional and sustainable practices of this unique region.

Holding ourselves accountable to the highest standards of social and environmental performance. Every sip of our coffee is a result of years of dedication to seasonality, provenance and sustainability.

Origin

Coffee in Peru is largely cultivated in the Andes mountain range, where high altitudes create perfect conditions for producing high-quality coffee. The fertile volcanic soil is nutrient-rich, and cooler temperatures at these elevations slow down cherry maturity, resulting in a more complex profile. Typically, you’ll find high acidity, stone fruit, dark chocolate and floral notes in a Peruvian coffee, but the diversity in landscape and climate creates flavour nuances depending on the region.
