01THE INTERVIEW

“Buyers used to taste my coffee and name their price. This season, the coffee brings its own numbers to the table.”

— PEDRO VILLANUEVA, FINCA ALASITAS

Q.Tell us about the farm.

Pedro's family has farmed Caranavi, La Paz, Bolinda, Bolivia for generations, balancing tradition with a new appetite for measured, evidence-first processing.

Q.What are you sending to the auction?

Geisha, washed process, grown at 1570–1570 m. Bright jasmine and bergamot lead into a honeyed body. Look for a lingering white-peach finish as it cools.

Q.Who do you hope wins it?

A roaster who will put the farm's name on the bag and come back next season — the point of selling on evidence is building relationships that outlast one harvest.
