New Arrival from Peru

JANUARY 18,2021

Coffee first made its way to Peru around the 1700s, and the region became one of the first in South America to grow the beans. In fact, to this day, no one knows why or how coffee made its way to Peru before the rest of Central and South America. But throughout the next couple of centuries, coffee production grew and flourished.

In the late 1800s, a fateful disease changed the course of history for the Peruvian coffee industry. Up to that point, the world had relied on Indonesia and the surrounding countries for their coffee. But when a disease decimated Asia’s coffee crop, the rest of the world started looking at other countries for their coffee, and all eyes turned quickly to Peru.
