Cooperativa Agraria Rutas del Inca

1-AS2

"Inka Essence" represents the living essence of the Inca legacy that still endures in the Peruvian Andes: their connection to the land, their respect for nature, their worldview, and their ancestral wisdom.This microlot has been carefully cultivated at privileged altitudes in Cajamarca, in a biodiverse environment that fosters a unique sensorial expression. The word "Essence" symbolizes that which is purest and most authentic: in this case, the soul of Andean coffee contained in each bean.

Through Inca Essence, the Rutas del Inca Cooperative shares with the world not only high-quality coffee, but also a living heritage, woven by generations of producers who combine tradition with excellence.
This coffee is the essence of a territory, a people, and a millennia-old history.
