Arnulfo’s small 1 hectare Finca La Tuna sits at 2031 metres above sea level in the highlands of Jaen, and he is one of several farmers collaborating as members of the Aromas del Valle co-operative.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe farm’s name is not, as we English speakers might mistake, a nod to the fish but instead ‘tuna’ is the Name for the fruit of the prickly pear cactus. Found in shades of green, yellow, or deep red (which you can see on the coffee label) the prickly pear has juicy flesh dotted with edible seeds. It is mildly sweet, with a flavour somewhere between a watermelon and bubblegum.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe region of Jaen is a tropical rainforest that has a warm climate all year round. The city of Jaen, taking the same name as the region, is considered as one of the hottest cities in the country. The hot weather is compensated by frequent and refreshing rains throughout the year but mostly concentrated in the months of December to March. The region has a great potential and several tourist attractions that include protected reserves, archaeological sites, and beautiful natural landscapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRipe cherries are floated to further select the densest (highest quality) cherries for processing. The cherries are then fermented for 60 hours, which increases sweetness and body before being pulped (mechanically squeezed to remove the seeds from the fruit flesh) and washed. The coffee is then dried on raised African beds under solar drying tent for 16 days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Aromas del Valle co-operative have been providing training on fermentation in recent seasons as a way to increase cup complexity and the value added to farmers' coffee, with this coffee demonstrating the benefits through increased sweetness and mouthfeel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis coffee from the Finca La Tuna is like a bright spring morning, with lots of light, crisp notes balanced out by the increased sweetness from the extended fermentation. Stone fruit notes are the present from hot through to cool, with fresh apricot deepening towards apricot jam once cool. This coffee has a lot of brightness, with malic, tartaric and citric acidities all playing a part, reflected in the stone fruit, white grape, and lemon notes respectively. The increased texture from the processing means the lemon note cools to present more as lemon meringue.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Established Wholesale","offers":[{"title":"250g","offer_id":56908147294586,"sku":"FINCA_LA_TUNA_250G","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":56908147327354,"sku":"FINCA_LA_TUNA_KG","price":56.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/9512\/2098\/files\/ScreenShot2026-05-20at14.15.07pm.png?v=1779282931","url":"https:\/\/wholesale.established.coffee\/products\/finca-la-tuna-peru","provider":"Established Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
