About this Coffee


Who is Hover Julca?


Hover Julca is a small scale coffee producer from the Tabaconas district in San Ignacio, Cajamarca, with 14 years of experience in coffee cultivation. He is a young producer who is sowing new varieties of coffee such as Geisha, which will bear fruit for the first time in 2023. His plots are at an altitude of more than 1800 meters above sea level, and he works with his wife, Rosoura Santos.

About Finca La Lima

Hover Julca's coffee plots are located in the Urumba Alto village, Tabaconas. The plot is named Finca La Lima, after a fruit plant found inside it, which distinguishes it from the others. Hover was encouraged to work in the farm as a child, and he continues to cultivate coffee, selling his coffee for over £800 per QQ (quintal/46kg), which motivates him to continue his work.


How was the coffee processed?

Hover cultivates Catimor, Bourbon, and currently, he has included Geisha into his coffee varieties. The coffee is washed and is grown using potassium sulfate and island guano as fertilisers. A selective harvest is made on the same day that the harvest is spread, then it is fermented for 30 hours in a ceramic tank and dried in solar dryers. The farm covers an area of 4 hectares and yields 3680 kilos of green coffee.
