Gilmer Mejia is the farmer for this sweet, winey Peru coffee. He operates the beautiful Finca Ecológica Agua Colorada, a farm his father, Filadelpo Cordova Mejia, acquired for growing coffee in 1990. It is a 7-hectare plot, on which 4 hectares grow Caturra and other common varieties. Wilmer is sure to pick all his coffees ripe and by hand, as they mature under the protection of wild shade trees. He uses compost and guano to fertilize his farm, and uses no herbicides.
Microlots from Peru are traceable to the farm level, and represent both the highest quality and the highest prices paid to the producer. At times, these can be individual members of certified coops.
