The story

Dwight's parents, Timoteo Aguilar Ramos and Belarmina Masias Zavala, established Nueva Alianza in 2000. Directly relevant reporting places its coffee plots around 1,800–1,950 m, while SEY listed these two November 2025 lots at 1,900 m. Dwight, a third-generation producer, won Peru's Cup of Excellence in 2018 and 2021 with washed Gesha; the farm's washed yellow-fruiting lot placed fifth in 2025 at 89.86.

Challenges

The producer faced significant financial hardship early in his career, which prevented him from pursuing his original educational goals. Developing the farm into its current state required a great amount of effort and persistence.

Innovations

For SEY's 2025 Red and Yellow selections, ripe cherries were held in cherry for 24 hours, floated, depulped, dry-fermented for 36 hours, and dried on raised beds for 20 days. The yellow-fruiting selection is commercially called Yellow Gesha*, but SEY stated that genetic confirmation was still pending.

Published coffees linked to this farm

For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.

Research sources & verification

These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
