About

A crisp and sparkling washed yellow caturra from Lenin Flores of Finca El Morito in Cajamarca, Peru. Deliciously clean and citrussy this coffee reminds us of lemon meringue, sparkling wine and caramelized ginger.

Nestled in the natural surrounding forests, Finca El Morito supports over 50 coffee-producing families in San Ignacio. They prioritize the use of compost over fertilizer and have excellent post-harvest processing. The farm, owned by David Flores, spans 150 hectares and boasts a diverse range of varietals. We look forward to working with Common Goal Coffee to bring more of them to you.

Brew Method

Filter: 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio (e.g., 20g coffee to 320ml water), medium-coarse grind

Recommended Resting

To get the best out of our coffees we recommend resting them. We have found for espresso the optimal age is 10 - 21 days after the roast date and for filter brew methods we find our coffees start tasting best after 3-4 weeks after the roast!
