This Bolivian coffee is grown in an area known as "humid sub-tropic forest", with with elevations ranging from 4225 - 5850 feet. The average size of these organic coffee farms are from 3 to 11 acres. The coffee fruit is brought to Proagra Cooperative for processing. The local terrain is rugged and steep, the forest is lush and beautiful. One of the main forest tree species here is Mahogany. There are 41 small coffee producers that participate in this particular organic coffee project.

The coffee trees from which this fruit derives are classic, older cultivars: Typica and Bourbon. During the harvest period there are three cherry pickings: March-April, May-June, and August-September. The coffee cherries are hand picked, usually by the women in the communities, when the cherries reach full maturity.

Cup Characteristics: The coffee is slightly spicy, full to heavy bodied, mild acidity and has good balance.
