The miniature land comes from Finca La Lima, a 1-hectare plantation managed by Edoardo Campos and located in the village of Rumpite, La Coipa district, San Ignacio province, Cahamaka region.

This small plantation is located above 2000m above sea level and grows Katula and bourbon whiskey. Despite its small size, finca has internal benefits, which is a small but well-equipped processing plant. Libya's altitude, diversity and ownership led La Lima to participate in a project called Estrella Divina. The project, launched in 2017, aims to produce the best coffee in the region through continuous training in fermentation and drying processes and quality control support for farmers.

Micro batches are prepared according to the complete washing process. Hand-picked cherries are first soaked in a special water tank. Floats tend to float, and immature drupes are removed immediately. The cherry is then mechanically treated to remove the skin and pulp, and then sent to the fermentor where the yeast and bacteria remove the residual pulp within 24-36 hours. After fermentation, the beans were re-washed with clean water, then dried on an elevated bed and gradually reduced their residual humidity.

In the cup, this coffee is absolutely floral, with aromas of vanilla, grapefruit and plums. It is highly complex, pleasant and exquisite.
