Artwork

The label features Wrexham's Waterworld - a leisure centre built between 1967 and 1970, known for its hyperbolic paraboloid roof, the only one of its kind in Wales. Queen Elizabeth II reopened it in 1998 after a major refurbishment. It's been a fixture of the town ever since, and in 2025 it was awarded Grade II listed status. A Wrexham landmark, properly recognised.

About the coffee

Las Payamas is a small farm by any measure - 3.5 hectares in the hills of San Ignacio, Cajamarca. Ines Gonzales Loaysa has been refining the processing here for years, and it shows. The washed process keeps things clean and lets the variety do the talking - Caturra and Bourbon grown high, where cooler temperatures slow the cherry and build complexity. Expect bright green apple acidity, pomegranate sweetness, and a brown sugar finish that lingers.

Why it tastes like this
  • Washed process → clean, fruit-forward cup
  • High altitude (1730–1840m) → bright acidity and complexity
  • Caturra & Bourbon varieties → natural sweetness and structure

Learn more about Peruvian coffee

Peru is one of the most consistent origins in specialty coffee - sweet, clean, and grown by smallholder farms along the eastern slopes of the Andes. Cajamarca has a reputation for clarity and balance, and Las Payamas sits right in that tradition.

Most Peruvian coffee is washed Arabica. The process keeps things defined remove the fruit skin early, dry it clean, and the variety and altitude do the work. That's why the cup tastes the way it does.
