Description

ELZER GARCIA, La Shapa Washed Caturra. This banger comes from an amazingly high-altitude farm near Jaén in Cajamarca, Peru. This is a great example of how a humble cultivar like caturra can shine with great growing conditions and careful processing. This beautifully clean cup smacks of juicy raspberries, yellow stone fruits and a rich sweetness like golden raisins.. Flavor profile: Dried Fruit.
