Origin: Peru

Grown across the lush, mountainous northern regions of Peru—Cajamarca, Amazonas, Pedro Ruiz, and San Martín—this coffee reflects a landscape where remote family farms and dramatic terrain shape every harvest. Each smallholder processes coffee at home before the Elevación AMAZ association unifies the lots at the dry mill, creating consistency, scale, and access to global roasters like goodboybob. The result is a distinctly Peruvian expression of place, built on hands-on farming, cooperative strength, and generations of regional knowledge.

Sourcing

This coffee is sourced directly from 763 smallholder families across northern Peru, where each farm hand-processes its harvest before the Elevación AMAZ association brings the coffees together for careful milling, sorting, and export. The cooperative model ensures traceability, consistency, and long-term market access—while reinvesting in local communities through NUAM, a “New Dawn” education program for children in remote rural areas. It’s sourcing with intention: built on years of trusted relationships, hands-on collaboration, and a shared commitment to quality and future impact.

Roasting

We’ve applied a precise medium roast to these Peruvian beans to perfectly balance their crisp citrus acidity with a rich, caramelized sweetness. This roasting profile develops the deep malt and cocoa powder undertones while preserving the delicate, nostalgic notes of baked apple and marshmallow for a smooth, well-rounded cup.

To maximize freshness, store coffee in an opaque, airtight container in a cool, dark and dry place. Avoid storing coffee in the refrigerator or freezer due to moisture and odor absorption, which can negatively impact flavor.
