From the producer

Juan Pablo Ortiz is a dedicated producer who manages a small garden and has gained international recognition for his commitment to quality.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based roastery focused on sourcing and roasting dynamic, complex coffees through transparent supply chain relationships.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

A 100-tree, third-year Gesha garden at 2,100 meters whose first internationally recognized production demonstrates Vilcabamba’s emerging specialty-coffee potential.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
CONNECTED CUSCO

Linked Vilcabamba to the existing Cusco regional record using verified administrative geography.

02
CONNECTED WASHED

Linked the existing Washed process record and documented the 32-hour dry fermentation.

03
CORRECTED FARM ALTITUDE

Replaced the farm record’s invalid zero-meter value with the exact 2,100-meter lot elevation.

04
PROTECTED PRICE AND SENTIMENT

Left conflicting archived U.S. prices and unverified public sentiment out of scored fields.

What was added?

Cusco and Washed relationships, 2,100-meter elevation, November 2025 harvest, 32-hour fermentation, raised-bed drying, and four editorial sections.

What wasn't added?

No reconciled U.S. retail price, drying duration, final moisture, roast level, roast date, or public sentiment score was inferred.

Why it matters

The profile now shows the precise small-garden context and process while correcting an impossible farm-altitude placeholder.

What you might taste

Apple blossom, lychee, and honeydew, as reported by SEY.

Coffee profile
