Description
Peruvian Fair Trade Organic Apurimac Coffee produced by Cooperativa Agraria Cafetalera Valle Rio Apurimac LTDA
This is a well-balanced coffee, nice body, some caramel bottom notes, and fruity high notes. All of the coffees that we sell are of the highest quality and bring top prices for their producers. These beans , however, have been certified Fair Trade by an independent organization to guarantee the producer is receiving a fair price. As well, they have been certified to have been produced organically.
The coffee is grown on small farms of less than 5 hectares, and under a vast canopy alongside avocados, oranges and other fruit trees.
Most farms have their own washing station and drying patios, and the cooperative employs several technicians who are constantly visiting and working with the farmers to ensure quality and consistency.
Higher Ground’s Peruvian beans are grown at high elevations in the Apurimac River Valley in the central highlands of Peru – this exceptional altitude creates a coffee with a bright acidity. This exceptional coffee is characterized by its pleasant aroma and a full body, with a sweet finish to the cup.
Peru FTO Apurimac is 100% Premium Quality Arabica Coffee.
