Edy Robles Sosa was born in coffee producing district San Antonio, and he’s been growing coffee since he inherited his family’s farm. Named Ahuaypili, the farm spans just 2 hectares and is named after a native fruit that grows in abundance there.
He grows well-kept Bourbon and Caturra varieties tended under native shade trees like Albizia and Pacay. After processing, like many of the smallholders in Yanatile, he loads parchment onto mules to be delivered to the nearest access road. This year’s honey process lot involved a meticulous process of 30 hours fermentation and over 20 days on raised beds.
In the cup, the coffee has some of the distinctive sweetness we often expect from a honey process (where some mucilage is left on the depulped seeds during fermentation). There's a ton of fruit character present, as well as unique acidity reminiscent of rhubarb. This is a really exciting late season arrival from Cusco.
Frequently Asked Questions
When Will My Order Ship?
We roast Monday through Friday, and most orders ship the next roast day from when they are placed.
The only exception is any pre-order item, which will ship on the date stated on that item's pre-order page.
Do You Have Recommendations For Brewing?
Yes!
First, we recommend a brewing ratio of about 1:17. So whatever your dose of coffee is for a brew (we recommend weighing your coffee in grams), multiply that number by 17, and use that weight of water to brew.
Second, always try to grind your coffee fresh, directly before you brew. This will significantly impact the flavor.
Lastly, and maybe most important, always use the highest quality water you can. Filtered is always best. Coffee is 98.5% water, so the water you use makes a huge difference.

Is ReAnimator Coffee Organic/Fair Trade?
While some of our coffees may happen to be certified organic or fair trade, we do not specifically look for either of these certifications when sourcing coffees, and do not market them as such.
All of our coffees are bought at fixed prices above the c-market, and 99% of the time we are paying higher prices than the Fair Trade Certified price.
Our sourcing goals are always quality and flavor focused, and we buy from producers and importers we trust to provide us with coffee that fits into our ideology.
