The Peru Fair Trade Organic stands out as being a balance of full flavour, mellow-medium body, and middle acidity, with a gentle sweet finish. Smooth nutty and chocolate undertones shine through this subtle and easy drinking brew. Coffee plants are mainly grown in higher altitudes of the Andes Mountains and is produced on small farms of no more than 3 hectares, which band together in cooperatives to have joint drying mills and take advantage of mass international export. Peru is the world's 8th leading coffee producer in terms of coffee area harvested and the 11th in terms of coffee exports.
