What makes Peruvian coffee special
Peru has risen steadily as a source of quality washed Arabica for roasters worldwide. Behind that growth sits a combination of geography, processing and export infrastructure.
Altitude and terroir
Peruvian coffee grows on Andean and Amazonian slopes, often above 1,200 metres. High altitude slows cherry development and concentrates sweetness and acidity in the cup.
100% washed Arabica
Peru produces only Arabica, almost all fully washed — selective picking and wet processing deliver the clean, balanced profile roasters expect from the origin.
Regional diversity
From Junín and Cusco in the centre and south to Amazonas in the north, Peru offers distinct regional profiles for commercial blends and specialty programs.
Export experience
HVC Exportaciones has exported Peruvian green coffee since 1984 — family owned, with headquarters in Lima and dry mills across the country. Learn about HVC or get in touch to source Peruvian coffee for your market.
