Farm History
The Vilcabamba Valley, also known as the “Isle of Longevity", got its nickname for a reason. With the high proportion of people who reached an age above average, it is not unusual to meet a hundred year old citizen doing field work.
The Capamaco farm has been in the family's hands for more than 50 years. In 2015 Roberto and Yesenia started growing Typica arabica. The surrounding rivers Yambala and Capamaco contribute to the especially fertile ground, giving the beans their distinct flavour profile. The first years of harvest were almost experimental, and in 2022 they were able to achieve stellar quality, which motivated them to participate in the Golden Cup contest and win 20th place. This year they took it even further and achieved a win in Cup of Excellence.
What is the Cup of Excellence?
Cup Of Excellence is one of the coffee industry's most prestigious competitions, which continues to increase the recognition of the work of coffee farmers.
The competition allows unbiased and stringent analysis of coffee quality and allows farmers of all sizes to participate. It gives them the tools to improve their coffees further.
Coffees go through several rounds of tough evaluation by national and then international judges. Often, only a few dozen of the sometimes thousands of submitted coffees make it through the first, national round.
The farms of the winning coffees will most often gain longterm recognition and get to auction their coffees in a global online-auction for premium prizes.
We are proud to be able to support the project as a Global Coffee Centre and Member of the Alliance for Coffee Excellence.
