Coffee is Peru’s leading agricultural product and ranks as the ninth-largest producer of arabica coffee globally. The country is a hub for organic coffee, boasting 220,000 organic farms, particularly in the Northern Andes, where high elevations provide ideal growing conditions with ample shade. Farmers typically employ all-natural cultivation methods, such as using natural fertilizers, avoiding chemicals and pesticides, and recycling coffee byproducts. These sustainable practices not only aim for organic excellence but also contribute to the region’s reputation as a sanctuary for birds and other gentle wildlife within a balanced ecosystem, with San Martin’s rainforest rich in fertile soil.
Flavor Profile
