About This Coffee

Peru is a significant producer of organic coffee, with the Cajamarca region being a key area. Grown at high altitudes in the Andes, these coffees are typically washed and known for their crowd-pleasing profiles. Expect a smooth, medium body with predominant notes of milk chocolate and toasted almonds. A gentle citrus acidity (like tangerine) provides lift, balanced by a pleasant brown sugar sweetness. It's often described as mellow and balanced, making it an excellent daily drinker and a good representation of classic South American coffee characteristics.
