The Capili Community in Cajamarca sets an impressive example of what the power of collective motivation can achieve. The community spans 197 farms across over 570 hectares, around 130 of which are part of a conservation zone. In two years, from 2020 to 2022, the Capili Community optimized the processing of their fully washed coffee to save over 93% water usage in their commitment to sustainability.

Cajamarca is renowned for being a region where productivity is high per hectare. The sweet coffees with bright acidity that grow here come from lush highlands at soaring altitudes of 1,500 to 2,000 masl.

Peru is the world’s 5th largest producer of Arabica coffee and it is gaining in popularity. The thin air, soaring altitudes, and fertile soil throughout Peru come together to form a breathtaking environment where coffee thrives making every harvest something to look forward to.
