Peru Chanchamayo Bio + Fairtrade

About This Coffee

This is a BIO and FAIRTRADE certified coffee from the Chanchamayo province near the city of Pichanaqui in Peru, one of the country's most important coffee-growing regions producing about 40% of Peru's total harvest. The coffee comes from the Aproselva cooperative, consisting of smallholder farmers who each cultivate approximately 2 hectares and produce around 1,500 kg of green coffee. The beans are shade-grown at higher altitudes to achieve slower ripening and denser bean consistency. Varieties include Caturra, Typica, Pache, and Bourbon. The coffee features a robust, dry, nutty profile with spicy notes of nut and cinnamon, suitable for both espresso and filter preparation.
