Oscar Abad
Finca La Palma is owned by Oscar Abad and is located in the San Ignacio Province in Cajamarca, Peru. The 1-ha farm has around 5,000 coffee trees and fertile soil with rich organic matter. The coffee is typically washed within a day of being harvested and dry fermented for up to 48 hours. It is then dried on raised beds for 30-40 days until the desired moisture content is reached. Recently, unseasonal rains have been a challenge. Oscar has invested heavily in infrastructure for the post-harvest process, with drying modules and fermentation tanks.
