Origin & Producer
Joel Estela is a dedicated specialty coffee producer from Cajamarca, Peru, a region internationally recognized for producing some of the country's finest high-altitude Arabica coffees. Growing coffee on fertile Andean slopes at 1,670 meters above sea level, Joel combines traditional farming practices with meticulous post-harvest processing to produce coffees with exceptional sweetness, clarity, and balance.
This lot is cultivated with the renowned Bourbon variety, prized for its elegant sweetness, silky body, and refined cup quality. After careful hand-picking, only fully ripe coffee cherries are selected before undergoing a washed fermentation process, enhancing the coffee's clean profile while preserving its vibrant fruit character and delicate complexity.
Joel's commitment to quality extends from cultivation to processing, with every step focused on maximizing the coffee's natural characteristics. Sustainable farming practices, selective harvesting, and precise fermentation contribute to a coffee that truly reflects the unique terroir of Cajamarca.
