La Pomarrosa – Peru

Merci is part of the younger generation of coffee farmers and began working in the field after observing her family manage their farms. She earned a degree in Crop and Livestock Production while helping her family on their farm. This level of education, both theoretical and practical, gave her a solid foundation for producing coffee sustainably and of the highest quality.

Merci's coffee is 100% organic. She grows bourbon, and the harvest on her farms lasts approximately four to five months. Flowering occurs from October to December, the coffees are harvested from June to September and sold in October.

Our roasting manager, Mikolaj, was impressed by the quality of Merci's coffees during his visit to Peru in October 2023. It's no surprise, then, that they continue to impress us and that we'll be working with this coffee again. In the cup, you can expect a beautiful representation of a washed Bourbon coffee from the Colasay region of Peru, with complex acidity, a heavy body, and a smooth mouthfeel. Deep flavors of red apple, wild strawberry, passion fruit, and tropical fruits with a lingering floral aftertaste.
