Founded in 2019, this coffee is produced by 30 different smallholder farmers that form the organization of Alpes Andinos in the La Coipa and Huabal districts of northern Peru. With elevations ranging from 1800-1850 masl, Alpes Andinos is certified organic with sweet and complex notes.
The coffee is first fermented with the cherry for 48 hours before de-pulped for second fermentation. After an additional 48 hours, the seeds are washed and set on solar dryers for several weeks to achieve ideal moisture levels.
Alpes Andinos is sweet and tart with tasting notes of dried fig and green apple. It is syrupy up front with a bright finish as it cools.
