Norbil Perez is one of the founding producers of the Aromas del Valle cooperative. His 4-hectare farm “La Chirimoya” sits at 2,250 masl in the community of Santa Teresa, El Campo sector, Callyuc. He regularly attends trainings and workshops focused on productivity, quality and experimenting with new fermentation and drying processes.

He is a producer who puts great emphasis on quality and precision and aims to improve every season. This lot is hand-picked and washed with an extended fermentation. Ripe cherries are sorted in water to select the densest (highest-quality) fruit. The cherries then ferment for 50 hours, are pulped, go through a second 42-hour fermentation, and are then washed and dried on raised African beds. Drying takes 17–18 days on average.
