Based in the mountainous San Ignacio region of Cajamarca, Peru, Cooperativa La Prosperidad de Chirinos is a coffee cooperative founded in 1968. With over 800 members, the organisation cultivates approximately 2,200 hectares of high-altitude coffee.
The cooperative is dedicated to improving the lives of its members and their communities through various programmes. They provide agronomic support and financing, and members can receive training in sensory evaluation and diversifying their income with other crops like avocados. La Prosperidad de Chirinos is also committed to social and environmental responsibility, with dedicated committees for women and youth to promote empowerment and leadership. The cooperative's focus on sustainability is further evidenced by its certifications, which include Fairtrade, USDA Organic, and Rainforest Alliance.
This is the perfect coffee to welcome in the colder months. Rich, sweet and decadent. Think Caramel, Chocolate, Green Apple acidity and a nutty hazelnut finish.
