Quiquira – Cultivar – Keen Coffee

Collaboration

The region of Puno, famed for its icy climate, towering altitudes, and the spellbinding Titicaca lake, is shaking things up with a bean that’s as surprising as it is delicious. This bean is a game-changer, turning the tough terrains into a hub of agricultural magic. The villagers, steadfast coffee cultivators for over half a century, juggle coffee farming with cultivating papaya, bananas, hot peppers, citrus, and avocados. And it’s not just about farming. The heartwarming Incan tradition of “minka” thrives here, fostering community work that benefits everyone, preserves forests, and safeguards native flora and fauna, like orchids and the vibrant cock-of-the-rock. Alto Inambari’s story isn’t just about coffee, but a journey of resilience, community, and a whole lot of flavour!

Taste

Quiquira is the oddball you can’t help but love. It’s got the grounding presence of black tea with a grapefruit’s sassy tang. And just when you think you’ve got it figured out, a wild peach sweetness rocks up. It’s a coffee rollercoaster and everyone’s invited!
