Peru Finca Franciscanos | Villa Rica Oxapampa

Finca Franciscanos lies near Villa Rica in the province of Oxapampa in central Peru. At 1,600 to 1,950 metres the farm grows Bourbon, a heritage Arabica variety prized for its sweetness and complexity. Good to know: this coffee is decaffeinated.

After harvest the coffee is washed, and the green beans are then decaffeinated using the sugar cane process. The ethyl acetate (EA) used for this is obtained from sugar cane and gently removes the caffeine while preserving the typical aromas of the origin.

And those aromas are worth it: blossom, Brazil nut, milk chocolate and brown sugar, wrapped in a soft, restrained acidity. We roast the coffee medium, making it smooth and balanced in the cup. In a pour-over or drip machine it shows its floral side, as espresso its chocolatey one, and in a French press it turns full-bodied.

Choose Finca Franciscanos if you want a decaf with a real sense of origin that you can enjoy at any time of day. Order the beans whole or ground to suit your brewing method.
