Green Coffee Beans Peru Union y Fe Gr. 1

Five (5) lbs.  Premium Arabica Gourmet Green Coffee Beans

 

A young cooperative, Union y Fe was founded in 2014 in the well-established growing region of San Ignacio, Cajamarca. The cooperative has 250 producers who farm a total of 873 hectares of coffee cultivated under the shade of fruit and forest trees. It’s through this shade-grown method that Union y Fe is able to preserve the natural environment and uphold sustainable production methods. Union Y Fe is quickly becoming known for their top-quality coffees.

Their producers hand pick only the ripest cherries, followed by immediate de-pulping and fermentation for up to 30-50 hours. They are then dried individually by producers on covered raised beds until the coffee reaches optimal moisture content. To ensure it dries properly, the coffee is moved up to 7 times per day, with the drying process taking up to 30 days. Each individual producer delivers their coffee to Union y Fe’s warehouse which has been carefully designed to preserve quality until the coffee can be transported to the regional dry mill and exported.
