The producer: Mario Delgado, 58 years old, from Cusco

The producer Mario has a unique coffee plantation, where he started working with specialty coffee only 7 years ago. It is this variety of coffee arábica bourbon yellow and red, still quite rare in Peru, that Mario cultivates with the help of his family, his son Nael and his wife Rosa.

Since the beginning, Mario has been improving. It was not easy for him to change his philosophy to focus on quality rather than quantity.

How did he do it? Mario changed his fermentation, drying and storage methods to improve quality.
