Hualter Huancas Dueñas

Some of our favorite geshas in recent years have come from high-elevation smallholder farmers of Peru, like this small 40kg lot from producer Hualter Huancas Dueñas. The extremely remote location of Hualter’s farm limits the materials available to him for farm investments and processing infrastructure, and the rugged climate can significantly impact fermentation timelines. Nonetheless, Hualter’s extensive experience has enabled him to turn these unpredictable conditions into something exceptional. We taste jasmine-like florals as well as an array of red fruits and tangy pomelo amidst a creamy milk chocolate base.
