Agustina & Familia

Agustina and her family hail from Huabal in the Cajamarca region, an area in northern Peru that has become synonymous with exceptional coffee quality. For years, we have partnered with farmers here, cultivating strong, lasting relationships with dedicated producers who help us source truly remarkable coffees. Despite intense competition, our commitment has enabled us to bring out superb lots season after season. Huabal, a district celebrated for its unique terroir, sits at an altitude of 1700 to 2000 meters, with temperatures ranging from 12°C to 22°C, creating ideal growing conditions. Its rugged landscape is marked by lush, cloud-draped forests that support diverse flora and fauna, including monkeys, deer, and rare bird species, and contribute essential water resources to the region.

Huabal’s climate and elevation yield coffees with an impressive body, layered complexity, and rich flavor that have gained both national and international acclaim. The distinctive quality of this particular lot is rooted in our deep familiarity with each contributing producer—Agustina Villanueva, Mauro Villanueva, and Betty Villanueva—all of whom bring consistent excellence to the coffee through shared practices, like similar cherry processing methods and carefully timed fermentations. This consistency, combined with their dedication, results in a beautifully stable and well-rounded coffee that captures the unique qualities of Huabal's terroir.
