This coffee is produced by the Chinguel-Morales Family at La Lucuma farm in San Ignacio, Cajamarca, Peru at 1750 meters altitude. It is a natural processed coffee dried on raised beds. The variety is Marshel, believed to be a unique mutation of Bourbon or possibly Costa Rica 95. The cup profile features a silky body with rose florals, wine gums and cantaloupe notes.
Tereza and Jon founded Curve Coffee Roasters in early 2016 in Margate, Kent, after meeting while working at a small London roastery. Jon first encountered specialty coffee while working at a high end equipment store in Sweden and went on to become a head roaster. Tereza's focus lies in responsible sourcing, ethical marketing, and sustainability across the supply chain. The roastery started at the back of a Margate cafe and has grown to a team of 15 with a customer base extending across Kent, London, and beyond. Sourcing runs on direct partnerships, including with El Zapoteco Cafe in the Sierra Juarez of Oaxaca, Mexico, and the Colombian exporter Siruma. The preference is for showcasing individual coffee profiles rather than blending.
