Our role is to facilitate, introduce and share Peruvian coffee with roasters wherever we can. This involves us finding great coffee, creating and maintaining those relationships and organising logistics.
Two cousins and a childhood friend, two living in Peru and one in the UK.
A mix of skills between us all and a shared passion of Peruvian coffee, culture and people.
