Peruvian Pangoa

Earthy sage notes with rich baker's chocolate in a smooth profile. This medium-dark roast with mellow acidity is ideal for a full-flavored yet gentle cup.

Sourced from the Cooperativa Agraria Cafetalera Pangoa in central Amazon, operational since 1977, this Single Origin from Peru exemplifies the power of small-farmer cooperatives in fair trade, deeply engaged in improving their members' lives.

Sourced from the central Amazon region of Peru, the Peruvian Pangoa is produced by the Cooperativa Agraria Cafetalera Pangoa. This offering, roasted by Higher Grounds Trading Co., presents a distinct profile characterized by notes of earthy sage and baker’s chocolate. Coffees from this region often reflect the unique biodiversity of the Amazonian landscape, where high-canopy shade and rich soil contribute to the development of complex, grounded flavor profiles.

When evaluating the nuances of a coffee like this, it can be helpful to reference a flavor wheel to better identify the specific aromatic compounds present in the cup. While some origins are celebrated for bright, acidic profiles, others—particularly those from the deep interior of Peru—are frequently prized for their savory depth and structural intensity. This particular lot highlights the cooperative’s commitment to quality and the distinct terroir of the Pangoa region, offering a balanced experience for those who appreciate a more robust, chocolate-forward cup.
