Peru Finca Santa Monica coffee is a “Cup of Excellence” award-winning heirloom (non-GMO) organic coffee that is exclusively available at Urth Caffé for a very limited time. It is a national award winner and the highest rated organic microlot coffee out of Peru. Urth Master Roaster, Zachary Fogel won this extraordinary coffee at auction and it was purchased directly from the farmer. A medium roast with an elegant body—it has tasting notes of berry, stone fruit, citrus and tropical fruit, with a silky finish of dark chocolate, molasses, and brown sugar.
This very special coffee was roasted to perfection at our Hawthorne roasting facility with the greatest care and expertise to coax out all of the unique and nuanced flavors this spectacular lot has to offer. It is a limited-edition, single-origin microlot that is not available anywhere else in the world. And Urth Caffé has a limited supply, so when it is gone it is gone!
FARM NOTES: Finca (farm) Santa Monica is located at an altitude of 2,100 meters above sea level, to the West of the Inkawasi district belonging to the Amaybamba center. It is located on the slopes of snowy Choqesafra that allows it to have a unique micro climate to bring out an exquisite and particular coffee on the palate of customers.
