ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

FARM DESCRIPTION:

This Organic Certified Grade 1 decaf coffee from Peru was sourced through Valley Trading Company, a local exporter that works with smallholder producers across several regions of the country. While this lot does not carry farm-level traceability, it was exported through the port of Paita, in northern Peru, indicating that the coffee likely originated from the northern highland regions, specifically Cajamarca, Amazonas, and Piura. These departments form part of what is broadly referred to as northern Peru, a zone known for its mountainous terrain, high-altitude farms, and favorable climate conditions that contribute to the production of high-quality coffee. Many farmers in this area cultivate coffee organically under shade trees, often in small family plots passed down through generations.

The coffee was decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process (SWP), a chemical-free method that preserves the flavor integrity of the beans. In this process, green coffee is soaked in pure water and passed through carbon filters that remove caffeine while leaving behind the original compounds responsible for aroma and taste. Because no chemical solvents are used, SWP is ideal for organic-certified coffees and ensures a clean, smooth cup.

Though not traceable to a single community or farm, this lot reflects the collaborative work of smallholder producers in one of Peru’s most important coffee-producing regions. It offers a reliable and sustainable decaffeinated option with the added assurance of organic certification and the flavor clarity that northern Peru is known for.
