Alarcon Family

The Alarcon Family cultivates coffee in the Cajamarca region of Peru, operating within an altitude band of 1790 to 1950 meters. Their production grounds itself in high-elevation terrain typical of Peruvian specialty coffee origins.

The varietal landscape represented in the catalog includes Geisha, Bourbon, and other cultivars such as SL9. This mix points to a focus on established specialty varieties alongside distinct regional selections.

The process portfolio balances traditional methods evenly, featuring both washed and natural preparations across their lot offerings. This dual approach allows the family to showcase different flavor profiles from the same harvest regions.

The catalog footprint comprises four total coffees from the Alarcon Family, with one lot currently in stock and three different roasters carrying their harvests. Roasters featuring their lots include Onibus Coffee, Intelligentsia Coffee, and Kaffa Steam Coffee Bar and Brenneri.

Recent catalog examples illustrate their varietal and process range, including a washed Geisha and a natural Geisha from Onibus Coffee, a washed Bourbon from Intelligentsia Coffee, and a natural SL9 from Kaffa Steam Coffee Bar and Brenneri. Their work demonstrates a steady presence across multiple international roasters through diverse varietal and processing choices.
