Peruvian Tasting Pack Peru is one of South America's largest coffee producers by volume but remains significantly underrepresented in the specialty market relative to its output. Coffee is grown across the eastern slopes of the Andes, with the northern regions of Cajamarca, Amazonas, and San Martín the most important for quality-focused production. Elevations across these areas commonly reach 1,500 to 2,000 metres, and the combination of altitude, cloud forest microclimates, and Andean soils creates conditions well-suited to clean, nuanced arabica. The country has a particularly strong tradition of organic and cooperative farming: a large proportion of Peruvian specialty coffee is certified organic, grown by smallholder communities whose low-input farming practices reflect both tradition and the practical realities of remote, high-altitude agriculture. Peruvian specialty coffee shares some characteristics with Bolivia: clean washed processing is the norm, and the cup profiles tend toward gentle acidity, brown sugar sweetness, and a soft, rounded body with stone fruit and floral notes at higher elevations. What Peru does particularly well is consistency and value: well-sourced lots from established cooperatives and exporters offer a reliable quality ceiling at prices that reflect the origin's relatively low profile rather than its actual cup quality. Bourbon and Caturra are the most widely grown varietals. Any lots we are currently roasting will appear below. Free UK delivery included. The coffees change with the seasons and availability, so every order reflects our current best selection of Peruvian lots. Want to dig deeper? Take a look at our sourcing guide.
