A nutty Peruvian coffee offering gentle berry acidity, a silky mouthfeel and caramelised sweetness.

We've sourced this mix of Typica, Caturra and Bourbon varietals from southeastern Peru, an area associated with the legend of Paititi. The legend states that, as the Spanish conquistadors closed in, the last Inca retreated deep into the jungle, carrying with them gold, sacred artefacts and knowledge. Somewhere beyond the Andes, they vanished. Explorers have searched for Paititi for centuries, but no trace of the hidden city has ever been found.
