Peru is unique in the variety of coffee flavour profiles it contains as a region. High altitude coffee from the Andes, an area famous for its coffee's bright acidity and floral aromas, tastes quite different to Chanchamayo coffee, which instead is synonymous with dark fruit flavours and a more intense acidity.
This diversity is what makes Peruvian coffee such a gem in the speciality coffee world, and one of our favourite regions to source from. Explore our collection of current and past Peruvian coffee below.

Archived products are unlikely to come back into stock. This can happen for many reasons, e.g. a limited coffee lot, the farmer no longer grows this coffee, etc.
Out of season products are likely to come back into stock next year. Coffee is seasonal and we try to maintain long lasting relationships with the farmers we work with.
Sold out products are likely to come back into stock soon. This is usually due to a small delay in delivery or roasting.
