What to Expect
This Peruvian washed coffee from the Santa Rosa region of Cajamarca is clean, sweet, and approachable. Roasted by Monsoon Estates, it's the kind of coffee that doesn't demand your attention but rewards it when you pay close enough notice.
The Cup
Expect a medium body with a smooth, rounded mouthfeel. The acidity is moderate and gentle, leaning citric without any sharp edges. This is a clean cup with no funk or ferment character — the washed process keeps everything transparent and origin-forward. Caramel sweetness anchors the profile, with chocolate and nut notes providing depth and a subtle citrus brightness lifting the finish.
Who This Is For
This suits drinkers who want something reliable and balanced without sacrificing character. It's sweet enough to enjoy black but forgiving enough for milk.
If you're chasing floral complexity or intense fruit-forward acidity, this won't deliver that.
Best for: Daily drinkers who value consistency and approachable sweetness over experimental character.
How to Brew This Coffee
The balanced profile makes this versatile across methods. Try it as filter to let the caramel sweetness and citrus clarity shine through cleanly. It works well in an Aeropress for a fuller-bodied cup that emphasises the chocolate and nut notes. For those who prefer something richer, French press will bring out the body and round off the acidity nicely.

A lovely sweet and clean little coffee. Very small quantity.
70% of the coffee is processed on the individual farms where it is grown.
The parchment coffee is then delivered into the warehouses of the cooperative in San Ignacio town, where each batch is evaluated for physical appearance.
30% is delivered as cherry for processing at the co-operatives’ own wet mill, set up for those that lack the time or skill to process well due to other commitments.
