Elmer Pérez is a man whose life is deeply linked to coffee. Together with his wife, he has worked tirelessly to get his family ahead, turning his farm into a reflection of effort, dedication and love for what he does. In each campaign, Elmer gives himself completely to the crop, always seeking to innovate and raise the quality of his coffee. Thanks to this commitment, he has earned the respect of his community and the constant support of Cooperativa Aromas del Valle.

The El Yllape farm, located in the Querocotillo district, benefits from a cool climate and ideal altitude that create a perfect environment for the cultivation of high-quality coffee. Throughout the year, moderate temperatures and well-distributed rainfall allow the plants to flower and mature slowly, resulting in more aromatic beans with exceptional flavor complexity.

The soil of El Yllape also plays a fundamental role. Rich in nutrients thanks to the biodiversity of the area, it offers the plants the optimal conditions to grow healthy and strong. This farm is not only an ideal place to produce coffee, but also an example of how respect for nature and working in harmony with the environment can result in superior quality coffee, which expresses the best of the Querocotillo region.
