Tropical Mountains PERU ARABICA Green Coffee: Community Coffee

The green coffee comes from the ACPC cooperative (Asociación Central de Productores de Café Pichanaki), which has over 300 members. It was founded in the year 2000 with the goal of promoting the sustainable socioeconomic development of its members, strengthening relationships with international importers, and increasing both the yield and production volume of coffee.

The Story of Tropical Mountains

The journey of Tropical Mountains began in 2012 as a small farm located 12 hours by car from Lima, Peru. Peruvian Gisella Iriarte and Swiss Thomas Schwegler dreamed of producing organic and fairly traded coffee – traceable from the bean in the tropical highlands to the fragrant cup at home.

Respect Makes the Flavor

As Tropical Mountains continues to grow, we remain true to our roots: organic farming, direct fair trade, and sustainable packaging. We are members of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO), support local schools, and finance community projects. We believe that respect makes excellent coffee taste even better – respect for our employees, the coffee plant, and nature as a whole. That's why we also compensate for the CO2 emissions generated in our value chain. Our family grows, but our values remain the same.
