La Naranja. Café de Perú

About This Coffee

This coffee is a single origin from Peru, specifically from the Jaén region at 1,800-1,900 meters altitude. Produced by Elmer Tineo Mendoza on his farm in El Diamante de Jaén, this washed coffee is made from Caturra variety cherries. The beans are processed using a washed method: cherries rest 24 hours after harvesting, then are depulped and fermented for 36 hours before drying on elevated beds for 11 days. The cup presents a very balanced profile with notes of apple, grapes, hibiscus, violets, and chocolate.
