Coffee Specs

Los Tulipanes is a honey processed coffee produced by the team at Cultivar using early-season deliveries (of ripe fruit, not parchment!) from some of their partner farms. Named for Calle Los Tulipanes, where Cultivar's Jaén warehouse is located, it consists of coffees from two different communities, processed individually with similar fermentation strategies, then combined afterwards.

We first tasted this coffee last year as an experimental batch - though commonplace in other countries, it is still rare in Peru to transact coffee as freshly harvested fruit (versus processed and dried parchment). After visiting Cultivar's Jaén warehouse this harvest and seeing their finite space firsthand, we're all the more impressed with what they've been able to pull off with this coffee. We're excited to offer Los Tulipanes for a second year and thrilled about another successful harvest working with this incredible, ambitious team...

I've been looking forward to Peruvian coffees all winter. This coffee's dense sweetness and floral-fruity qualities are an absolute joy.
