桃やマンゴーなどのストーンフルーツの綺麗な果実感に花束を持っているかのようなフローラルな香り、蜂蜜のような甘さが続きます。ボリビアの名農園アグロタケシと湖を挟み反対側に位置し、味わいも非常によく似ています。
プーノは、高地と寒冷地、偉大な山々、フォークロア、そしてボリビアと共有する標高3812メートルのチチカカ湖でよく知られた地域のひとつです。近年プーノは、山岳地帯や極寒の地に加え、熱帯雨林や熱帯の渓谷があり、スペシャルティコーヒーの栽培、またその品質が注目されています。
アルト・イナンバリ地区とそのコミュニティは、ペルーアマゾンに注ぐイナンバリ川流域の上部に位置していることに由来しています。この地域では、アボカド、唐辛子、柑橘類、バナナなど他の生産物も栽培していますが、主にコーヒーで収入を得ています。さらに、彼らは伝統的に神聖なコカの葉を栽培し、「パチャママへの支払い」と畑仕事中の充電を行っています。「チャチャコカ」はアンデスの文化で非常に一般的な習慣で、コカの葉を数枚噛んで小さな塊を作り、頬と顎の間に挟んで口の中に入れておくものです。これは高山病や疲労、空腹を防ぐために用いられ、非常に高い標高で暮らす彼らにとっての習慣となっています。
彼らの多くはケチュア語を話し、アンデス文化の伝統を今日まで実践しています。その一例として『アイニ』、ケチュア語で『互恵』を意味する言葉があります。「アイニがあれば、ある家族から別の家族への援助が必要なときに実践され、それは相互扶助的な仕事である。今日はあなたのために、明日は私のために。」
It has a beautiful fruitiness of stone fruits such as peach and mango, with a floral aroma as if you hold a bouquet of flowers, followed by a honey-like sweetness. Located on the opposite side of the lake from the famous Bolivian farm Agrotakesi, the flavours are very similar.
Puno is one of the regions of the country best known for its high and cold lands, for its great mountains, its folklore and for the Titicaca lake at 3812 meters above sea level shared with the country of Bolivia. However, in recent years it has also stood out for the quality of its coffees, because in addition to mountainous and very cold landscapes, Puno is home to rainforests and tropical valleys where specialty coffees grow.
The district and community of Alto Inambari owe their name to the fact that they are located in the upper part of the Inambari river basin that flows into the Peruvian Amazon. In this area, families depend mainly on coffee to generate income, although they also grow other products such as avocado, hot pepper, citrus, banana, among others. In addition, they traditionally cultivate the sacred coca leaf to make "payments to Pachamama" and to recharge while working in the fields. "Chacchar coca" is a very common practice in the Andean culture where a few coca leaves are chewed making a small bolus that is kept inside the mouth between the cheek and jaw. Chacchar coca is used to avoid the effects of altitude, hunger and fatigue, which is why in Alto Inambari families usually use it in their daily lives.
Most of the families in Alto Inambari speak Quechua and practice Andean culture traditions to this day, an example of which is the “ayni”, a popular Tahuantinsuyo custom that is practiced to this day in many Peruvian communities. "Ayni" is a Quechua word that means reciprocity and that is precisely what this custom is about. When there is ayni, help from one family to another is practiced when needed, it is a reciprocal and supportive work: Today for you, tomorrow for me.
