Del Oso (left)
PERU EL OSO GEISHA
Blood Orange, Sweet Apple & Jasmine
Another wonderful coffee from the El Oso project. Grown by Cooperativa Agraria Frontera San Ignacio (COOPAFSI)
This is habitat for the endangered spectacled bear & the project was created to protect it.
Organically grown at altitudes of up to 1890m & also certified fairtrade, this is our very first Geisha coffee. Geisha is a much prized varietal that originated in the Gori Gesha forest in Ethiopia and now thrives in South & Central America. Geisha is famed for it's exceptionally aromatic citrus & floral notes. Best suited to cafetiere, filter & Aeropress brewing & is best served black.
PERU LOS AMIGOS DEL OSO
Nutty, Cranberry & Orange Marmalade
Los Amigos del Oso means 'The friends of the Bear'. The El Oso project was set up to help conserve forests in San Iganacio, where spectacled bears & other native animals face huge pressures and are in danger of extinction.
Through both organic farming methods & fairtrade certification the project tries to encourage a culture of the protection of wildlife.
Suitable for all brewing methods it produces a wonderfully complex cup.
It's nice having bears about the coffee house.

Wherever you wander, wherever you roam, if you are kind & polite the world will be right, especially with a coffee in your hand or under your hat!
