About this lot
ORIGIN With the Pacific Ocean to one side and the Andes to the other, the mountainous country of Peru is the third largest coffee producer in South America, behind Brazil and Colombia, with an average of four million sacks (69kgs) produced each year. Its thriving coffee sector is well established and continues to support the livelihoods of more than 200,000 smallholder producers. The remoteness of the coffee farms and average farm size (less than four hectares) has allowed for the development of micro-lots that command higher prices in the specialty coffee sector.
