Organic Espresso Description
Wild child is a seasonally adjusted espresso roast consisting of certified organic coffees. Currently it is a washed specialty regional coffee from the Faical coffee cooperative in Cajamarca in northern Peru.
Faical Coffee is a Peruvian company led by brothers Richard and Lenin Jaramillo, dedicated to supporting over 400 specialty coffee producers in Cajamarca. They offer guidance in every stage of production—from soil testing to post-harvest processing—to improve coffee quality and ensure fair prices. Committed to sustainable practices, Faical promotes environmentally friendly methods, benefiting both farmers and local ecosystems.
Cajamarca experiences a subtropical highland climate with steady temperatures between 16-20°C throughout the year. The majority of rainfall occurs during the warmest months, and along with the region's mineral-rich mountain soil, this makes the area especially fertile.
