This coffee is grown in the Amazonian Andes in northern Peru, and is sourced from the JUMARP (Juan Marco El Palto) Coop. JUMARP Coop was founded in 2003 by Jose Carranza Barboza and 35 other small holder farmers, and has grown to over 236 partners today. The Coop has continually invested in processing and training for its associates, and El Palto is now known as a coffee with an excellent body, elegant and balanced flavour, with fine acidity.

Early in its development the Coop noticed that women were typically only involved in the cooperative peripherally, and even more rarely in decision making. To address this the Coop created the 'Mujeres programme' (Spanish word for Women), which works to improve the social and economic standing for its women members.

The coffee is grown at an altitude of 1100m to 1800m above sea level, and is washed processed. The crops are strictly managed using as few pesticides as possible, using organic materials and striving to preserve the farmers' natural resources. 

This coffee is Medium-Dark roasted, and can be brewed either as a Filter or Cafetiere, or brewed through a Bean-to-Cup machine. It can also be brewed as a milder Espresso. This delightful coffee has a cup profile of Milk Chocolate, Dried Fruits and Honey, with a clean mouthfeel, a high level of sweetness and a medium body.
