Swipala Café la Perla Boliven

100% Arabica. Grand Cru: a real rarity

Café la perla is a single variety Arabica coffee (single origin) from Caranavi, the Bolivian highlands. While two beans normally ripen in a coffee cherry, in rare cases only one is formed, the pearl bean. The pearl bean is a special coffee bean, a real rarity, which grows individually in a normally double coffee cherry, spreading out in all directions and thus acquiring its characteristic round shape. All the flavours are concentrated in this one bean, giving it its intense taste when roasted.

Café la perla is an excellent organic Arabica coffee from the Caranavi region in the subtropical eastern slopes of the Andes in Bolivia. The coffee is grown by a co-operative on a single plot of land (finca y micro-lote). The pearl beans are then sorted out by hand. This special selection guarantees a fantastic quality of green coffee.

The coffee is certified organic and is roasted and packaged as a Grand Cru at the Oetterli roasting plant in Solothurn, an organic roasting plant. Gentle roasting in a drum roaster in small batches guarantees top quality coffee and freshness.

The owners of the Bern-based company swipala GmbH spent two years working with small farmers in Bolivia. Today, swipala buys the green coffee directly from the producer families (without intermediaries) and pays extra premiums for the special selection and organic cultivation. swipala fosters cooperation with its Bolivian partners on the basis of Fairtrade standards. As many value-adding activities as possible are carried out in the country of origin. For example, the packaging was designed by a Bolivian artist.
