History of San Martin

History of San Martin

The country has a long history of quality, organic arabica production, primarily in three growing regions on the eastern slope of the Andes mountains: Chanchamayo in the central highlands, and Amazonas and San Martín, in the northern highlands. The USDA notes a gradual shift in production northward from Chanchamayo to Amazonas and San Martín, the latter two regions now producing nearly half of the country’s coffee.

The United States and Germany remain the two biggest buyers of Peruvian coffee, representing nearly half of the export market share.

Peruvian coffee is almost exclusively arabica, with some 70 percent being of the typical variety, 20 percent caturra (coffee beans), and 10 percent other varieties. The vast majority of these coffees are grown by smallholder farmers in high-altitude locations in naturally shade-protected conditions, where it is typically hand-picked and sun-dried. Given these circumstances, Peruvian coffee has boundless potential for quality improvement and differentiation in the global marketplace, although there are a number of critical factors limiting positive momentum.
