Review
From my home state of Minnesota comes this lovely organic coffee from a farm within a protected forest situated in northern Peru. Rose floral aromatics greet you as you taste sweet caramel and pecan nougat flavors in the brew. Flavor notes of peaches, stewed strawberries, and cherry juice mingle with citric acidity balancing the sweetness. A juicy mouthfeel with apricots and honey make it a perfect morning coffee for your favorite pastry.

Roaster notes: Marilú from Peru is a very special woman. We started purchasing coffee from her in 2019 after a visit there by our roaster. Marilú is a mother, farmer (more than just coffee) and community leader within her larger coffee cooperative community (COOPBAM - we use their coffees in several blends). Her land and farm is certified organic and sits within the Alto Mayo protected forest in northern Peru. We are privileged and honored to have her coffee for a second season and are confident you’ll love the fruits of her labor.
