Peru, Miguel Estela Espresso

This coffee is the product of the Flores family’s decades-long commitment to quality farming in Cajamarca. Led today by second and third generations, their collective work at Finca El Morito spans direct family plots and neighbouring producers within their tight-knit community. Since the 1970s, they’ve built a deeply collaborative model rooted in care and craft. That dedication has paid off with El Morito placing multiple times in the Cup of Excellence, most recently in 2022. This lot overseen by Miguel Estela, reflects that legacy in every cup.

Wide Open Road were drawn to this coffee for its quiet confidence. It offers warmth, clarity and a shape shifting complexity that opens up over time. It hits a rare balance between playful sweetness, creamy texture, and a backbone of elegant structure. Think toffee richness up front, a thread of baker’s chocolate grounding the cup, and a finish that recalls vanilla biscuits just out of the oven.
