Sisay Yacu #00095

“Sisay Yacu” originates from the Quechua language and means “blooming water” or “small waterfall.” This name for the lot refers to our export partner “Finca Cascadas de Cueva” and the symbol of the waterfall. Many Peruvian villages on the eastern side of the Andes have “Yacu” hidden in their names. Here, hundreds of rivulets spring forth in the forest and on the fincas, all of which will later flow into the Amazon.

The “Sisay Yacu” lot is a blend of microlots of various varieties and processes from our partners Germán Carranza, Gover Cuevas, Martin Rojas, and Jorge Morocho from northern Peru. We have mixed their lots to achieve optimal homogeneity in the appearance of the beans through an extra selection.

What makes the lot special is the screen size between 14 and 16. The varieties Catimor, Caturra, Pache, and Bourbon in various processes produce a round, juicy cup with potential at every roasting level.
