History

Familia Fernandez is from the Fernandez family who all have their own small farms and this coffee is a blend of the highest preforming Bourbon varietal. This coffee is apart of the sourcing program, Origin Coffee Lab, which selects small lots from farms across, Jaen, Colosay and San Ignacio that have incredibly quality. Origin Coffee Lab supports the producers so they continue to work on better farming practices and investing back into the community. 

Mikołaj and Federico visited in the fall of 2025 and got to see first hand how the quality in Peru is improving each year. This coffee is expressive with tropical character. You can expect notes of dried figs and stone fruit.

Context

From Prolog Coffee, this washed Bourbon comes from Familia Fernandez in Peru's Colasay region. Grown at 1800–2200 meters, the coffee expresses dried fruit and subtle tea-like qualities typical of washed coffees at elevation. The washed process emphasizes clarity and acidity, allowing the varietal's natural sweetness to come forward alongside stone fruit and black tea notes. Bourbon is known for its balanced, complex cup, and this lot demonstrates that approachable character while maintaining depth—making it an accessible entry point into Peruvian specialty coffee.
