This lot of Marshell variety was cultivated at 1850 m.a.s.l. on
Alejandro’s farm. He owns a 7-hectare plot in La Copia,
Cajamarca. The fertile volcanic soil, rich in organic matter,
provides a strong foundation for coffee cultivation. La Copia
experiences a cold climate with warm days and significant
rainfall. This combination of factors, along with the careful
selection and processing of cherries by Alejandro, results in
high-quality coffee beans.
Marshell is a variety discovered in 2016 by Grimanes Morales
Lizana, a coffee farmer in the municipality of San Ignacio, Peru.
The Marshall tree looks very different from the rest of the
varieties cultivated in the area. So, the coffee farmers who
found it (the Grimanes family) named it Marshall.
