Our Union Promise: You can enjoy your coffee knowing it is always sourced direct from farmers via Union Direct Trade. Always high quality speciality coffee, carefully roasted fresh to order.

A deliciously sweet coffee

This delicious coffee is grown at high altitude in the Peruvian Andes by a group of smallholder farmers. It has the perfect balance of natural sweetness and gentle acidity.
Flavour Category
chocolate & caramel chocolate & caramel
High quality coffee has wide ranging, naturally occurring taste notes. The dominant flavour profile in this coffee is Chocolate & Caramel. Brought out by the roasting process – caramelisation happens towards the end of the roast. Generally the darker the roast, the more dominant the chocolate and caramel flavours are.
Roast
This coffee is a dark roast. Roast level influences the flavour and body of coffee, and darker roasts are fuller bodied, with bold, rich chocolatey notes.
Best Brewed As
espresso
This coffee is best brewed as an espresso (coffee shop type machine or a bean to cup). All our coffees can be brewed using any method, but this is our recommendation for a method which suits the coffee particularly well.
Processing Method
This coffee was processed using the washed method. Post-harvest processing influences the taste profile. Washed coffees are brighter, naturally processed are sweeter and honey processed are somewhere in between.

More about this coffee

Tasted as a pure espresso look out for notes of red berry jam, dark chocolate and walnut. Add a touch of milk for a 6oz flat white and you will experience a smooth chocolate truffle, hobnob biscuit and roasted hazelnut flavour. Finally, a 10oz latte will produce a delicious coffee - evoking flavours of sponge cake, vanilla and cashew nut.
