Mahlgrad Projekt Peru “PachaMama“ – 100% Arabica Espresso from the Highlands

With Projekt Peru, you can discover an exceptional Arabica espresso from the Peruvian highlands. The espresso is named “PachaMama“—a term that already meant “Mother Earth“ to the Incas and expresses a deep appreciation for the land, the coffee farmers, and the coffee itself. The high-quality Arabica beans come from the village of Miguel Grau in the Chanchamayo region and grow at an altitude of more than 1,600 meters.

The special location of the growing region gives the coffee an even fuller flavor. Here, the coffee cherries are allowed to ripen slowly until they turn a deep red and develop their full aroma—giving this espresso its characteristic natural sweetness.

Flavor Profile

Projekt Peru offers a harmonious combination of almond and chocolate notes. This smooth, full-bodied aroma makes it a particularly well-balanced espresso with pleasant depth.

The chocolate nuances bring to mind dark cocoa and create a rounded body, while the almond aromas add a delicate, nutty sweetness. Slow ripening at high altitude gives the espresso natural sweetness and a smooth, lingering finish.

Arabica Espresso from the Peruvian Highlands

The highlands of Chanchamayo are among Peru’s most renowned coffee-growing regions. Coffee plants grow at altitudes of more than 1,600 meters under optimal conditions. The high elevation, mild climate, and nutrient-rich soils slow the ripening of the coffee cherries and encourage the development of rich, complex flavors.

The name “PachaMama“ stands for more than just origin: it expresses appreciation for Mother Earth and the smallholder families who pass down their knowledge through generations and place great importance on quality. The result is high-quality Arabica beans with a distinctive sense of place—the ideal foundation for an exceptional Arabica espresso.
