Organic coffee from Peru – A pleasure with responsibility

Peru – A paradise for excellent organic coffee

Peru is one of the most important producing countries for high-quality organic coffee. The unique climatic conditions in the Peruvian Andes provide ideal conditions for growing Arabica beans. At altitudes of up to 2,000 meters, the coffee plants thrive in sustainable mixed crops and agroforestry systems that preserve natural biodiversity and protect the soil.

Sustainable cultivation in harmony with nature

Organic coffee from Peru is cultivated according to strict ecological criteria. The avoidance of chemical fertilizers and pesticides preserves the quality of the soil and promotes healthy, resilient coffee plants. Sustainable mixed cultivation, often in combination with shade trees and other crops, creates natural habitats for numerous animal species. This sustainable agriculture contributes to preserving Peru's rainforests and promoting biodiversity.

Fair trade and direct partnerships

Fair trade is an essential component of Peruvian organic coffee. Many coffee cooperatives and smallholder farmers rely on direct marketing to obtain fair prices for their products. ALTOMAYO works closely with over 150 organic coffee producer families, supporting them with long-term trading partnerships. This not only ensures fair incomes but also strengthens rural communities and promotes sustainable development.

The unique flavor variety of organic coffee from Peru

Peruvian organic coffee is known for its balanced and complex aromas. The interplay of mineral-rich soils, high altitudes, and sustainable cultivation results in coffees with complex flavor profiles. Fruity citrus notes, subtle chocolate nuances, and floral accents make every cup a special experience.

Gentle roasting for the best taste

After careful harvesting, the beans are refined using a traditional long-term drum roasting process. This slow, gentle roasting ensures that the delicate aromas can develop optimally and the coffee remains particularly digestible. Bitterness is minimized, creating a harmonious, mild taste experience.

Why organic coffee from Peru is a conscious choice

Buying organic coffee from Peru not only means exquisite coffee enjoyment, but also a contribution to environmental protection and social responsibility. Through sustainable cultivation, fair trade, and careful processing, Peruvian organic coffee stands for quality with a clear conscience.
