About the Growing Region
This coffee is grown on the flanks of the Andes, giving it elevation and microclimates favorable for specialty coffee. The altitude and mountainous terrain contribute to slow cherry development, which helps concentrate flavors.
About the Farmers
Most Peruvian coffee farmers are smallholder producers, typically operating family-run farms of about 1–3 hectares. Coffee is usually their primary cash crop, and many farms have been passed down through multiple generations. The farming population is diverse, including Indigenous communities—particularly in the Amazonian highlands—as well as mestizo settlers in the Andean-Amazonian border regions. In recent years, women-led producer groups have also expanded rapidly, especially since around 2015.
About Peruvian Coffee Farming Practices
Peruvian coffee farming typically relies on traditional, low-impact methods. Many farms grow coffee under the shade of native forest canopy, and producers often use organic or very low-chemical approaches. Because farms are small, cherries are usually hand-picked at harvest. After picking, the beans are commonly washed-processed and then dried using the sun, often on patios or raised beds.
