The story
A rich, layered Fair Trade Organic coffee
This lot comes from Aprocassi, a Fair Trade Organic certified cooperative with 600 active members across the San Ignacio and Jaén provinces of Cajamarca, Peru. Member farms span 1,000 to 2,500 meters above sea level, with coffee grown under shade and processed as naturals, sun-dried in the cooperative's traditional style.
Aprocassi also invests in its community and environment. Through Apromiel, a partnership with the NGO Rikolto, women coffee growers receive training and beekeeping support that diversifies farm income.
The cooperative is piloting Huella Ambiental, a 51-family study of the full life cycle of coffee from farm to port, with the goal of cutting emissions and moving toward carbon neutrality.
Why we picked it: This Aprocassi natural is rich and layered in the cup.
Red grape leads with a juicy, jammy sweetness, balanced by the kind of baking spice warmth you'd expect from something just out of the oven.
Chocolate rounds out the finish and gives it staying power. It's a coffee with real weight and complexity
