Romulo Nunez Peru
Romulo lives in La Merced, in the Chanchamayo valley.
The province of Chanchamayo belongs to the Junin region and has a long tradition for high-quality coffee production dating back to 1920, when the descendants of about 300 German-speaking settlers who relocated from Europe in 1857, arrived in Villa Rica and started to cultivate arabica coffee.
Romulo entered the coffee business in 1997 as a purchasing and quality control manager. He and Frank met in 2000 and have been a team ever since. Romulo directs numerous coffee projects and sustainability initiatives to help private associations and individual farmers to achieve certification for “responsible” coffee production by implementing new sustainable growing standards. Thanks to his long-standing personal relationships with the farmers, he is able to identify specific tasting profiles with each producer in order to match the quality preferences of our customers. |
