El Rejo

ABOUT

Rich in texture, chocolatey and clean, El Rejo from San José del Alto, Jaén, Cajamarca is here to sweeten your day.

Next up in your espresso line-up is El Rejo! Year two buying coffee from the one-hectare farm of exporting duo José "Pepe" Rivera and Mariagracia Echeandía of Origin Coffee Lab; this lot showcases the potential of the Marshel hybrid, a Catimor varietal that Pepé stands behind, and is becoming quite popular in Peru for balancing quality and yield.

Beyond varietal, the highlight of El Rejo is that it showcases the work of individuals key to most of our supply chains in Peru, but in the context of their own farm and production. Hearty and dessert-like in taste and texture, plum leads the way to creamy chocolate and hazelnut heaven, amplified when enjoyed with milk and shining on its own. Classic Cajamarca; grab some while you can.
