The coffee story
This coffee was short-listed by the Cup of Excellence (CoE) jury in Peru this year. It was cupped 4 times by an experienced team selected by Central de Café y Cacao, the organization behind the local CoE chapter, in Lima in preparation for the auction. This lot didn't make it to the international phase. However, this is an outstanding coffee amongst the best the country can offer! Jose's coffee is being offered exclusively to roasters in Europe for direct sales for the first time this harvest. The initiative is being coordinated by Algrano in partnership with Central de Café y Cacao and Pachamama Inversiones with support from the Alliance for Coffee Excellence (ACE).

Our farm is very isolated and difficult to get to. When we first bought it it used to take us 4 hours to bring the cherries to the road on foot. We carried heavy sacks on our backs all the way. With the help of our co-operative and other projects we were able to imrpove a little bit.
