Description

A great example of washed Peruvian coffee showcasing sweetness, a medium body and a chocolatey finish. The Asociación Agroexportadora de la Región San Martín was founded by producers seeking an alternative to selling coffee to large multinational buyers, which often left farmers with little bargaining power. The association now helps smallholder farmers build more stable and sustainable livelihoods through better market access and quality-focused coffee production. This lot of Typica, Pache and Costa Rica 95 is a great example of the hard work put in by the association.
