El Rejo – Peru

José, the driving force behind Origin Coffee Lab and long-time partner responsible for exceptional coffees such as La Higuera and La Pomarrosa, cultivates this coffee at El Rejo Farm with his wife, Mariagracia Echeandía. Nestled in San José del Alto, Jaén, at an altitude of 1750-1800 meters, this one-hectare farm is primarily planted with Bourbon coffee and shaded by banana trees. Selected by Fede and Mikołaj during their trip to Peru in 2025, this coffee stood out as one of the most surprising and characteristic of their journey.

In the cup, expect a lively and crisp expression with layered acidity, vibrant notes of red currants and guava, honeyed sweetness, and a delicately pink floral finish.
