He inherited the land from his father, who arrived a generation ago from another part of Peru with the idea of starting a life in coffee. Germán now pursues coffee full time alongside many of his siblings, cousins, and uncles, who collectively work across 14 hectares and share a drying facility among them. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt 1600 meters, El Bebedero sits in a privileged position at the edge of the vast Amazon rainforest, while still benefitting from such high elevation. With microclimate and biodiversity already being an advantage, Germán made the decision years ago to pursue a differentiated product by going the route of specialty coffee. He planted a wide swath of varieties, including Castillo, Bourbon, Villasarchi, Pacamara, Geisha and more, and then explored further by leaning into diversifying his post-harvest processing. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt Yellow Rooster, we’ve had the pleasure of tasting Natural, Honey, and Washed coffee, both anaerobic and not, across a myriad of varieties since we started working with Germán in 2019. Curious and creative by nature, Germán is one of the leading actors in the surging Peruvian coffee scene, and as our longest-tenured producer ally at origin, we’re both proud of and grateful to Germán for the mutual trust we have developed between us.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Process\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor this lot, Germán picks ripe cherries and removes the floaters. He then places the cherries into a 50 gallon plastic tank, sealing it for three days (72 hours) to create the anaerobic effect. He then drives the coffee about an hour down to the valley by the Marañón River in the small village of Puerta Malleta where he shares a drying facility with his family. As opposed to at the farm, which is often subjected to heavy rains and cloud cover, Puerto Malleta has almost desert-like conditions, where the coffee dries evenly on ever-so-slightly raised beds (the word in Spanish they use is “trays”) close to the ground and under shade for about 20 days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany of these photos come from our Coffee Educator, Tara, who was able to visit Peru and \u003cspan\u003eGermán's farm!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Happ Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"8oz bag \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":51450025181499,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8oz bag \/ Ground (Espresso)","offer_id":51450025214267,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8oz bag \/ Ground (Pour Over)","offer_id":51450025247035,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8oz bag \/ Ground (Flat Bottom\/Home Coffee Maker)","offer_id":51450025279803,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8oz bag \/ Ground (French Press)","offer_id":51450025312571,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8oz bag \/ Ground (Cold Brew)","offer_id":51450025345339,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/1640\/5563\/files\/German.png?v=1783791565","url":"https:\/\/wholesale.happcoffeeroasters.com\/products\/peru-german-carranza-barboza-geisha","provider":"Wholesale Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
