Peru La Danta Washed Espresso - Single Origin.

La Danta is a blend of coffees produced along the highlands of San Ignacio, Cajamarca. The blend is named after the Andean Tapir, also known as mountain Danta, also known in Quechua as “sacha huagra”. As an endangered herbivore, it is commonly found roaming the Andes mountain range, especially in northern Cajamarca. La Danta; sourced through Caravela; represents for them a more conscious coffee producing culture that places nature and coexistence as an upmost priority. The producers who contribute to this brand recognise and believe that by always placing nature first, they add greater value to coffee and its surroundings. From the seed, to cherry, to parchment, to green coffee, this collectivo is possible thanks to the joint effort and commitment of more than 74 farmers.
