Profile
Region: Lambayeque Penachi
Altitude: 1300 – 1800m
Varietal: Typica
Process: Washed
The beans originate at the very high altitude of the Andes in remote far north of Peru.
Every year, the Women coffee producers celebrate their coffee with an Organic Coffee Festival where small pantomimes about coffee stories are judged.
Traditional regional costumes are worn with pride, and the Coffee Queen is announced.
We hope they don’t mind that we also celebrate their silky soft sweet coffee every morning!
We roast this high grown bean with great deal of care, it holds with clean sweet notes, plum overtones and a smooth dark chocolate finish.
This cuts through milk, yet develops smooth body that holds long on the palate with hints of red wine Cabernet. One of our most popular coffees for use at home in a plunger or filter, but shines in complexity with a long black espresso extraction.
