Description

High in the mountains of Northern Peru, at almost 2,400 metres above sea level, El Choloque is home to Fredis Rodríguez Sosa and his small coffee farm. Fredis began growing coffee just four years ago, looking for a way to improve his family's income and move beyond the limited returns of growing potatoes and maize. Since planting his first trees, coffee has become his main source of livelihood and a project he continues to develop with dedication and care. This washed Typica is selectively harvested, carefully sorted, fermented, washed and slowly dried to preserve the quality of the coffee. Grown at exceptional altitude and produced on a small farm, it offers a glimpse into both the potential of the Typica variety and the difference that quality-focused production can make to a young coffee producer.

How To Enjoy

This is a coffee to take your time with. We recommend trying it across different brew methods to explore how the high-altitude Typica develops in the cup. A clean filter brew will allow the clarity and character of the coffee to shine, while espresso should bring more weight and sweetness. As the coffee cools, take your time - the changing temperature can reveal another layer of complexity.
