Women-Produced Coffee Beans from Peru

The name Warmikuna means ´women´ in Qechua, one of Peru´s oldest languages. In 2010, a handful of women coffee producers joined our Volcafe Way cluster in Junin´s coffee growing region. Twelve years later, the Warmikuna cluster was born. Today, it is comprised of 55 thriving women who have followed Volcafe Way agronomic standards and have demonstrated a leading role in the coffee business.

Six business model farms are currently spearheading the profitable sustainability and regenerative practices. These farms act as showcases through which other producers can see proper technical training in action. Through their efforts, a highly traceable and empowering coffee like this can exist. With notes of brown sugar, caramel, dark chocolate, and dried fruit, Warmikuna Women’s Coffee evokes warmth and sweetness in every cup.

Peruvian Coffee Destination | Junin

Junin is one of Peru’s most biodiverse regions and the bridge between the Andes mountain range and Amazon rainforest. The coffee-producing department connects several habitats and allows vast cultural and natural wealth to coexist.

Peru Green Coffee Beans

Peru is the world’s 5th largest producer of Arabica coffee and it is gaining in popularity. The thin air, soaring altitudes, and fertile soil throughout Peru come together to form a breathtaking environment where coffee thrives. But sharing a border with the largest coffee-producing nation in the world is not easy. While Brazil’s efficiency and price points are unmatched, Peru finds its footing in differentiation and variety, making every harvest something to look forward to.
