Peru La Perla

About This Coffee

This single origin coffee from the local brand "La Perla" comes from the Café Mujer women's initiative of the Norcafé cooperative in Amazonas Province, Peru. Produced by ten women producers at over 1800 meters altitude, it is washed processed. The coffee is from the modern roasting series, roasted quickly and briefly to retain diverse nuances and fruit aromas. Varieties include Catucai, Bourbon, and Pache. The coffee develops citrus and caramel aromas and tastes like warm, spicy fruit juice when prepared as espresso. It is optimized for modern espresso preparation with lower brewing temperatures (88-90 degrees) and pre-brewing.
