Nespresso invites coffee lovers to embark on journey of the senses into the Peruvian Andes to discover a remarkable treasure. Perú Secreto, the newest Limited Edition Pure Origin Grand Cru, is a unique Arabica blend sourced from remote coffee farms nestled along the spectacular Andean hillsides and valleys of Peru.
With Perú Secreto, Nespresso invites coffee lovers to discover the taste of Peru, the newest coffee-growing country within the Pure Origin range of Grands Crus.
The permanent Pure Origin range currently showcases four iconic countries of origin, with Indriya from India, Rosabaya de Colombia, Dulsão do Brasil and Bukeela ka Ethiopia.
Perú Secreto, like the recent Monsoon Malabar from India, will be available for a short time only, due to limited supply.
Nespresso coffee experts worked closely with 176 coffee farms in four different areas around the Peruvian Andes to acquire small amounts of exceptional green coffee to create this 100% Arabica blend.
Various factors combine to distinguish this region and the coffee it produces. The subtropical climate provides optimal cultivation conditions, with alternating wet and dry seasons.
The high altitude of around 1,500 metres above sea level provides the right amount of sunlight for quality coffee to flourish.
Finally, the local Peruvian farmers, working through the Nespresso AAA Sustainable QualityProgram, are dedicated in their care of the terroir that provides them with their livelihood. This unique alchemy is the secret behind Perú Secreto.
With an intensity of 8 on a scale of 1 to 12, Perú Secreto is intense, sweet and round with roasted and cocoa notes.
This complex yet well balanced Pure Origin espresso also pairs well with milk, as it develops a creamy texture with subtle hints of banana flambé and a rich, lingering finish.
