Region and Farm Introduction: Located in San Ignacio, Cajamarca, Peru, Finca La Lúcuma is a high-altitude coffee estate associated with the Huaches Zurita family. Established as a family coffee project in 1984, the farm has progressively focused on specialty coffee quality, introducing Geisha cultivation to explore greater floral complexity and cup elegance.

The estate gained international recognition at the 2023 Peru Cup of Excellence, where its washed Geisha placed second. This Honey-processed Geisha offers a different expression of the farm's character, combining delicate chamomile florals, vibrant passion fruit, golden kiwi brightness, and Trigona honey-like sweetness.

Processing Method Features: The Honey process removes the outer skin and pulp of ripe coffee cherries while retaining a portion of the sticky mucilage during drying. This approach can enhance perceived sweetness and develop a rounder mouthfeel while preserving the Geisha variety's delicate floral and fruit characteristics.

In this lot, the process complements the soft chamomile aromatics and lively tropical fruit notes. Passion fruit and golden kiwi bring juicy brightness, while Trigona honey-like sweetness creates a smooth, layered, and elegant finish
