Bursting with floral and fruity elegance — expect bright notes of cranberry and pomegranate, layered with sweet honey and delicate florals of jasmine and marigold. The aroma is equally inviting, filled with honeyed jasmine and marigold blossoms. This is a lively, refined coffee with sparkling acidity and a clean, lingering finish — perfect as a pour-over or light espresso.
The Story Behind the Cup:
Merly León has been an active member of Aromas del Valle since its early days. Driven by curiosity and a desire to push quality higher each season, she experiments with cultivars and techniques alongside her family. The cooperative, supported by programs focused on agronomy, finance, and social equity (including the Mestiza project empowering women producers), invests in infrastructure and the next generation of farmers. This coffee is more than just a great bean — it’s a taste of perseverance, community, and thoughtful innovation from the mountains of northern Peru.
Whether you’re starting your morning with purpose or winding down after a long day, this Peruvian gem delivers bright, elegant flavors that honor the hard work behind every harvest.
