Named after Peru’s endangered Spectacled Bear, El Oso is more than a great cup of coffee. By purchasing this bag, you help support conservation in northern Peru, protecting forests and wildlife around the Tabaconas Namballe sanctuary. Working with the Agraria Frontera San Ignacio cooperative and importer D.R. Wakefield, the project also supports organic farming, reforestation and farmer education, helping both the land and the people who care for it.

The result is a beautifully balanced cup with notes of crisp red apple, creamy cashew and sweet crème brûlée. Let us know how you’re brewing it and how it’s tasting by tagging us @saintespresso
