This coffee offers a well-rounded, rich, and flavorful experience with layers of intricate flavors.

Jorge Chavez is not a person, but a very small town of around 30 families in northern Perú. Each year they harvest around 250 bags of great, consistent, and sweet coffee beans. Don Ciro Castro is the coffee leader of the community. Don Ciro and his family lived high in the Andes Mountains where they raised cattle and produced Aguardiente, a Peruvian spirit made from sugarcane. By the 1990s, Don Ciro could no longer compete with the corporate Aguardiente manufacturers so he, his wife and his oldest son, Henry, moved to the village of Jorge Chavez. They built a livestock farm and reinvested the profits into cultivating coffee. In the last few years, Don Ciro and Henry led the community initiative to transition to specialty-grade coffee production. Don Ciro now consolidates and checks on the town’s coffee lots, loads them into a truck, and brings them to be processed. This coffee is special because it's the effort of multiple families in a community and it represents some of the best coffee Peru has to offer. Peru has a burgeoning coffee industry that may soon match the dynamics of Colombia and we're excited to explore this region and all it has to offer—coffee and stories alike.
