From the producer

Candelaria Santos has spent her life around coffee and now manages her own small Caturra garden. She is recognized for her deep commitment to both the craft of coffee production and the quality of her output.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based micro-roastery focused on sourcing dynamic, complex coffees through transparent supply chain relationships. They are known for a light-roast style that emphasizes the natural character of the beans.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This coffee represents a rare opportunity for the roaster to work with the Caturra variety again, which has been a foundational part of their sourcing history. It is one of the few selections the roaster sourced from northern Peru for the season.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

Identity

Confirmed Candelaria Santos, Tres de Mayo, San Ignacio, Cajamarca, and Caturra.

Lot details

Confirmed 1,800 m, December 2025 harvest, 32-hour dry fermentation, washing, raised-bed drying, and the listed cup notes.

Retail history

Recorded the archived $27/250 g format and sold-out status.

What was added?

Verified producer, garden, region, variety, altitude, harvest, processing, cup notes, historical package price, and evidence limits.

What wasn't added?

No owner tasting, score, approval, roast date, drying duration, or inferred roast level.

Why it matters

The profile now distinguishes exact-release facts from general roaster positioning and makes the unavailable details explicit.

What you might taste

SEY lists cherry, panela, and apple; these are roaster tasting notes, not our tasting observations.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.
