The Norandino cooperative in Piura and Amazonas, Peru — 1,100 to 1,700 meters above sea level in the clay mineral soil of the Andean highlands — is a living expression of Ayni, the Incan principle of sacred reciprocity. What the earth gives, the farmer honors. What the farmer tends, the earth multiplies. This is the ancient agreement that has sustained Andean civilization for thousands of years, and it is the agreement that makes this coffee possible.
Salted caramel, silky sweet, citrus — a medium roast of extraordinary smoothness, now in the convenience of a single-serve pod. Fully washed and sun dried by Caturra, Bourbon, Catuai, Pache, and Catimor varietal farmers whose relationship with this land is devotional. Every pod sealed to preserve the integrity of what the sacred valley gave.
