Peru

Peru is a country of origin for coffee with enormous potential, but until now it has hardly been on the map for specialty coffees. We would like to change that: With the Norcafé cooperative, we focus on long-term partnerships, quality programs and full traceability of Peruvian coffee. One of these wonderful projects is "Café Mujer" from the Norcafé cooperative. 

Women in coffee cultivation

As producers, women in Peru unfortunately still do not appear that often. Structurally, they are still at a great disadvantage. Depending on the country of origin, there are only two to a maximum of 30% female landowners. Yet women often contribute the greater share of labor to coffee production. We are therefore all the more pleased to present LA PERLA, a coffee that is produced exclusively by female farm owners.

Product information "Special Edition La Perla"
This specialty coffee from Peru has an individual sparkling acidity that finds the perfect complement with the sweetness of citrus notes. The lively freshness is rounded off by the juicy apple flavor. The full and fruity body of La Perla offers a balanced taste experience with intense aroma and fine acidity.
Aroma Profile: Intense. Fruity. Lively
Intensity: 7/10
Origin: Peru
Roasting: 4/5
Acidity: 5/5
The "Café Mujer" project of the Norcafé cooperative - a community of 10 women who produce the community coffee LA PERLA on their small 2 to 3 hectare farms in the Lonya Grande region in the northern Amazon region of Peru. The coffee gardens are managed exclusively by women - and the coffee production is also carried out by women. Café Mujer's gender strategy is to advance gender justice and equal opportunities for women. In addition to supporting women coffee farmers, the holistic approach includes, for example, preserving the fertility of Bцden and biodiversity. The Norcafé cooperative focuses on growing specialty coffees using organic methods. It originated from a group of university students and children of small producers. Their goal is to work together to continuously improve quality. Therefore, the Norcafé cooperative brings together quality and sustainability under an ecological spirit: 

"QUALITY WITH ECOLOGICAL SPIRIT"

 This includes advancing gender equality throughout the coffee value chain. In the case of the Peruvian cooperative, it is above all the very young team behind Norcafé that makes the cooperative special. Otherwise, if you look at the people behind coffee cultivation in Peru, their average age is around 56. Many young people from the coffee-growing regions are drawn to the cities, because the low coffee prices and the comparatively hard, physical work are often no prospect for them.

Norcafé is different: A new generation has started up here. It wants to lead coffee cultivation in Peru into a sustainable future.

Preparation

With the simplest of equipment, the women manage to produce an impressively clear and expressive coffee. What is special about LA PERLA production is that only fully ripe cherries are used, which rest overnight for 15 hours after harvesting. In the morning, the cherries are peeled (sculpt) and the pulp remaining on the parchment coffee is fermented for 24 hours. The coffee then dries on raised beds for up to four weeks. This so-called "washed process" allows the accents of the variety and the terroir to fully come to the fore.

Sustainably packaged

Our focus is on sustainability. That's why it's just as important to us that our products are packaged sustainably. We use boxes made of recycled material, which have no unnecessary outer packaging and are only printed on the outside with food law compliant inks. This way we all keep our carbon footprint low and do good for the environment.
