Bercy Velasco
- Varietal: Heirloom Bourbon
- Farm Size: 2 Hectares (Micro-lot scale)
- Canopy Density: ~300 Native & Fruit Trees
- Key Shade trees: Guachipilín & Javoncillo (Deep-soil mineral extractors)
Taking over his family’s two-hectare parcela a decade ago, Bercy initially farmed traditionally, selling his harvest into undervalue, undifferentiated commercial streams. Five years ago, he initiated a radical quality intervention. By enforcing strict brix-level harvesting (leaving green fruit on the branch) and introducing rigorous, timed fermentations, Bercy elevated his family legacy into the specialty tier.
The foundation of this quality leap is a dense understory of 300 standing trees sheltering his heritage Bourbon shrubs. Inga and Chalún act as the farm’s atmospheric nitrogen pumps, while Guachipilín and Javoncillo deep-mine essential subsoil minerals to enrich the topsoil. Concurrently, interplanted Orange trees shed steady organic matter, naturally regulating soil acidity.
This lot bridges old-world varietal elegance with modern processing precision. Because Bercy allows only perfectly mature cherries into his tiled fermentation tanks, the cup highlights the delicate, sweet, and clean characteristics of legacy Typica. The multi-species root network gives the coffee a remarkably complex structural balance, offering vibrant citrus notes driven by the orchard-influenced topsoil, a silky body, and a highly refined, transparent finish.
