Maria Estela is a key figure in the El Morito association, farming at 1790 to 1850 masl in the Cajamarca region of northern Peru. She works alongside her three children, cultivating Yellow Caturro, Marshell, and Bourbon, and manages all post-harvest processing on-farm. Two of her children are pursuing medicine, while her son Antony is training in post-harvest techniques to continue the family's coffee work.

El Morito, founded in 2022, is a community-based association of smallholders who process their coffees independently before consolidating for export, a structure that supports traceability and shared investment in quality. This lot comes from Maria Estela as an individual, traceable farmer, grown at 1790 to 1850 masl and made up of the Caturro Amarillo (Yellow Caturro) varietal.
