About This Coffee
Loro Verde — Spanish for “green parrot” — comes from the forested hills of Cajamarca, one of northern Peru’s most respected growing regions. Hundreds of smallholder families each tend small plots high in the Andes, where cool mountain air and rich soil slow the cherries as they ripen.
Each farmer harvests, pulps and dries their own coffee before delivering it to Falcon Coffees’ lab in Jaén, where every lot is cupped and graded. That careful, fully washed approach is what you taste in the cup: smooth milk chocolate, a bright twist of orange and a sweet toffee finish — then roasted medium in Kuala Lumpur to keep it balanced and easy to love.
How to Brew Peru Loro Verde
| Method | Ratio | Recipe | Time |
| Espresso | 1:2 | 18g in, 36g out | 26–32 seconds |
| Filter / Pour-over | 1:16 | 15g coffee, 240ml water at 92°C | 2:30–3:00 |
Tastes bitter or hollow? Grind a touch coarser to slow the flow; grind finer if the cup tastes thin or sour.
How Much Coffee Is in a Bag?
A 300g bag makes around 20 filter cups (about 15g each) or roughly 17 espressos at 18g — a couple of weeks of smooth morning brewing. Want to settle in? The 1kg bag stretches to about 65 filter cups, so you can live with this chocolatey Peru and watch how it opens up across the bag.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Peru Loro Verde better as espresso or filter?
Both work well. As filter or pour-over it shows the cleanest orange brightness and milk-chocolate sweetness; as espresso it pulls richer and rounder, with the toffee body coming forward. Start with the recipes above.
What does this coffee taste like?
Milk chocolate, orange and toffee, with a smooth mouthfeel, gentle acidity and a sweet finish. It’s a balanced, easy-drinking South American cup rather than a heavy, roasty one.
How fresh is it?
We roast to order in Kuala Lumpur. 300g packs ship within 24 hours, and the coffee is at its best 1–2 weeks after the roast date printed on your bag.
Which grind should I choose?
Pick the grind that matches your brewer at checkout — whole bean, French press, drip, Aeropress, mokapot or espresso. Whole bean ground fresh just before brewing always tastes best.
