Peru El Palto Coffee Beans

Peruvian coffee are coffee beans grown in Peru, one of the top ten coffee-producing countries. Peruvian coffee beans are almost exclusively Arabica and include varietals like Typica, Caturra, Bourbon, Catimor, Pache, and Gesha. Colipse Peruvian coffee is a medium roast, single-origin Arabica coffee featuring Typica, Bourbon, and Castillo varietals. Our coffee is Grade 1, the highest quality classification for Arabica beans in Peru. It is organically grown and Fair Trade Certified. The beans are fully washed and hand-sorted for a clean flavor, traceability, and consistent cup quality.

The main types of Peruvian coffee based on region include Cajamarca (vanilla, molasses, stone fruit), Piura (nutty, citrus, caramel), San Martin (chocolate, floral, citrus), Amazonas (honey, lemongrass, citrus), Junín (tropical fruit, caramel), Pasco (chocolate, caramel), Huánuco (Gesha, tropical), Cusco (floral, chocolate), Ayacucho (cereal, black fruit), and Puno (Tunki Coffee, fruit, chocolate). Colipse Peru coffee comes from the Amazonas region in Northern Peru, specifically the Yamon District in the Utcubamba Province. The beans are grown at altitudes of 1,300–1,800 meters by the JUMARP El Palto cooperative.

Yes, Peru coffee is considered very good due to its high-altitude growing regions, organic practices, and diverse flavor profiles. Peru ranks as the second-largest exporter of organic coffee and produces award-winning specialty beans. Colipse beans are SHB (Strictly Hard Bean) because they are grown at high altitudes between 1,300–1,800 meters in the Peruvian Andes. SHB classification indicates denser, higher-quality beans that develop slowly at elevation, producing richer flavor and better cup clarity, ideal for specialty-grade coffee.

Colipse Peruvian coffee beans delivers smooth, approachable flavor with low acidity. Gentle on sensitive stomachs. Many people who find other Peruvian coffee brands too acidic enjoy this without discomfort. Fully washed processing and medium roast create a smooth, balanced cup. These beans are ideal for specialty coffee due to their bright flavor, clean cup, and consistent profile.

The correct grind size depends on your brewing method:

• Coarse (sea salt texture): French press, cold brew
• Medium (sand texture): Drip machines, pour-over, Chemex, AeroPress
• Fine (table salt texture): Espresso, Moka pot

We offer all three pre-ground options at no extra cost, or choose whole bean for maximum freshness. Whole bean stays fresh up to one month versus two weeks for pre-ground, making it the better value if you have a grinder. Grinding immediately before brewing preserves aromatic oils and delivers superior flavor.

Your beans are roasted on demand and vacuum-sealed immediately in bags with CO2 valves. They ship the same day and arrive within 3-5 business days of roasting—significantly fresher than grocery store coffee that sits for weeks or months. Coffee loses approximately 10-15% of its flavor per week after roasting. When you pay $22.50 per 12 oz bag for our coffee, you're getting 100% of the flavor potential. Grocery store coffee at similar prices delivers perhaps 40-60% of its original flavor due to age.

Grind size depends on your brewing method. Choose whole beans for coffee for home grinding if you have a grinder, grinding immediately before brewing maximizes flavor and aroma. Select coarse grind for coffee for French press and coffee for cold brew makers. Choose medium grind for coffee for drip coffee makers and coffee for pour-over methods. Select fine grind for coffee for espresso machines. If you're unsure, whole beans offer maximum flexibility for coffee for multiple brewing methods.

Calculate based on your daily consumption. If you drink 2 cups per day using 20 g of coffee per cup, you'll use approximately 280 g (10 oz) weekly or 1.2 lbs monthly. For this consumption rate, order a 2 lb bag ($49.99) every 4-5 weeks to ensure you always have fresh coffee. Light drinkers (1 cup daily) should start with 12 oz bags every 3 weeks. Heavy drinkers (4+ cups daily) benefit most from 5 lb bags.

No minimum order required. You can purchase a single 12 oz bag with free shipping, or order multiple bags at once. However, larger sizes offer better per-pound value: 12 oz costs $1.88/oz, while our 5 lb bag costs just $1.21/oz. If you're a daily coffee drinker, ordering larger quantities reduces your effective cost per cup significantly while ensuring you always have fresh coffee on hand.
