This month's favorite: organic and fair trade coffee from the Alto Verde cooperative, a treasure from Peru.

At Caf'écolo, we love sharing much more than just a good cup of coffee. We love telling stories, highlighting sustainable initiatives, and introducing you to exceptional products. This month, our favorite is a coffee unlike any other: an organic Arabica, grown at high altitude in the San Martín region of Peru by a cooperative of committed small-scale producers. A coffee that has flavor, but above all, meaning.

An environmentally friendly culture

Alto Verde coffee is grown at altitudes between 1,200 and 1,800 meters, in the heart of protected forests. No pesticides, no chemical fertilizers: only natural farming practices that respect biodiversity. The producers adopt agroforestry methods, cultivating their coffee trees under a canopy of vegetation, which protects the soil, promotes ecosystem regeneration, and maintains a natural balance. The result: a richer, more complex coffee, and a preserved environment.

A fair model that changes lives

Behind every cup of this coffee lies an inspiring cooperative model. Alto Verde's producers are part of a fair trade cooperative that guarantees stable incomes, well above market prices. This ethical trade allows families to live with dignity, finance their children's education, and invest in local infrastructure. Buying this coffee is therefore much more than a gustatory pleasure: it's an act of support for a fairer economy.

A unique taste for true connoisseurs

In terms of taste, Alto Verde coffee is a true explosion of aroma. Thanks to its high-altitude cultivation and gentle, artisanal roasting, it reveals floral and fruity notes, with a touch of lively acidity and a beautiful, lingering finish. It's equally suited to espresso and filter coffee makers, and will appeal to both casual drinkers and connoisseurs. A coffee that transports you from the very first sip.

Why this coffee is a responsible choice

Choosing organic and fair trade coffee like Alto Verde means opting for conscious consumption. It means rejecting intensive industrial plantations, which are sources of deforestation and exploitation. It means prioritizing quality over quantity, people over machines, and nature over chemicals. It also means participating in a virtuous circle where every player—from producer to consumer—finds their rightful place.

At Caf'écolo, we believe that good coffee can change the world. Alto Verde coffee perfectly embodies this philosophy. It's the perfect blend of pleasure, ethics, and ecology.
