Syrupy Body, Pineapple + Blueberries.
A standout natural coffee from Efrain Carhuallocllo Salvador, a forward-thinking producer based in El Corazón, Chirinos. Grown at 1,700m and made from the Caturra varietal, this lot underwent a 48-hour cherry maceration before being slow-dried for around 25 days - resulting in a syrupy, tropical-sweet cup that bursts with notes of grilled pineapple and juicy blueberries.

From Curve Coffee
This coffee was cultivated and processed by Efrain Carhuallocllo Salvador - an innovative and quality driven producer from El Corazon village in the Chirinos District. Efrain’s coffee farm spreads over around 4 hectares and his pristine wet mill and drying facilities are managed with exquisite care and attention. He grows Caturras (Yellow and red) and Gesha varieties which he processes with using a mixture of washed and natural methods. This particular lot is a natural. After picking the cherries are washed with clean water and sorted to remove underripe and floaters. After this the coffee is allowed to rest for 24 hours under shade in plastic bags. It is then transferred to African beds that are maintained under controlled temperature and humidity conditions. The drying process for Efrain’s natural coffee takes up to 40 days. Efrain is one of the most innovative producers in the area and has won many local as well as national awards including placing. second at the Cup of Excellence competition. Maintaining his processing facilities in great condition Efrain also takes great care over the drying process, uses probes in the drying area to measure temperature and humidity and making sure the coffee is dried slowly and evenly for better longevity. This is our second year of purchasing Efrain’s coffee after it truly stood out on the cupping table last year. And we’re super happy to have been able to buy two lots produced Efrain this year. This natural is real stunner with sticky sweet cup full of tropical fruit reminding us of grilled pineapple and hints of blueberries too. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
