This coffee comes from Perù, in particular, it is grown in the heart of Amazonian Peru, in a mountainous and unpredictable area (between 1200 and 1800 meters), difficult to reach and therefore less known as a coffee area. The harvest is done by hand; afterwards the berries are left to ferment for 24-36 h and subsequently dried in ovens.
CACE Alto Palomar is based in the district of San Luis de Shuaro, in the province of Chanchamayo in the heart of Amazonian Peru, in a mountainous and unpredictable area, difficult to reach and therefore less known as a coffee area.
The cooperative includes just over a hundred small producers who grow coffee between 1200 and 1800 meters, in the shade of a forest where native species predominate. The harvest, between April and July, is done entirely by hand; afterwards the berries are left to ferment for 24-36 H and subsequently dried in ovens.
In the cup a sweetness prevails with aromas linked to amaretto and honey, in the after taste a persistent note of milk chocolate, the acidity is delicate and pleasant, in espresso a silky and velvety body.
