Why did you choose this coffee for the Advent Calendar?
“We have a friend in Peru that is a Q-grader and an enthusiast when it comes to finding exciting lots for us. He visited Miguel Ramirez and found that he owns a farm that is 6 hectares in size. He has dedicated 1 hectar to growing geisha beans.
It is a light and refreshing coffee that we want to share with the KaffeBox community!”
