About the Origin:
This coffee is sourced from smallholder farms located in the Amazonian Andes of northern Peru, a region known for its high elevations and rich biodiversity. The cooperative behind this lot began with a small group of farmers and has grown into a well-organized community focused on quality, sustainability, and fair trade practices. Today, both men and women play active roles in production and leadership, working together to improve farming methods and elevate their coffee on the specialty market. The combination of altitude, climate, and careful processing results in a clean, balanced cup with clarity and depth.
