Peru Tabaconas Washed

Tabaconas, Peru – Cloud Forest Coffee with Deep Roots

In northern Peru, near the Ecuadorian border, Tabaconas is a highland region known for steep mountains, cloud forests, and exceptional biodiversity. At elevations of 1,100–2,400 meters, smallholder farmers cultivate Arabica on 2–5 hectare family plots, using organic, shade-grown, and sustainable practices.

As the birthplace of CENFROCAFÉ, the region has a long tradition of cooperative quality. This lot is fully traceable to 154 producers, each contributing from their own named plot. The coffee is fully washed: cherries are handpicked, depulped the same day, fermented for 24–36 hours, and dried slowly on raised beds for a clean, consistent profile.

Certified Organic and Fairtrade, this coffee reflects both the landscape and the care of the families who grow it.
In the cup, you’ll find bright notes of lemon, vanilla, chocolate, and stone fruit, with nice complexity and a smooth, honey-like mouthfeel.
