Origin Coffee Lab

This coffee is part of our sourcing program in Peru through Origin Coffee Lab. We acquire microlots or communal blends from small, family-operated farms, where the entire production process occurs. Producers in premium programs, like ours, invest in production, holding enough parchment for potential microlots or improved community blends.

Our sourcing is concentrated in villages in La Coipa, Colossay, San Ignacio, and other locations, selected through selective cupping. Our exporting partner actively supports producer relations, providing assistance with quality protocols, traceability, and premiums.

Our approach is consistent across communities: selecting microlots with high performance, lot sizes between 10 and 20 bags, and purchasing producer blends when possible. The program ensures fair premiums for all coffees, emphasising community investment for a consistent supply and continual farmer incentives for quality production.
