His farm, Querofinca, is located in Queromarca in Cutervo, Cajamarca. The name combines “Quero” from Queromarca and “finca,” meaning farm. He cultivates Typica, Caturra, and Bourbon Rosado, varieties known for their balanced flavors. With fertile soil and ideal microclimates, Alex produces coffee with great body and fruity notes. His goal is to make Querofinca a model farm, using sustainable practices that contribute to both coffee quality and the surrounding environment.
