From family farms straight to your cup

La Coipa is a small rural district in the San Ignacio province of northern Peru, near the border with Ecuador. Coffee is grown almost exclusively on small family farms, often on steep slopes. For many households, it is the main source of income and the reason they stay on their land.

Stable and fair prices for quality coffee have a direct impact on farmers’ daily lives – helping to pay for school, healthcare and home improvements. They also enable investments in production, such as better drying beds, cleaner washing stations and more careful harvesting, which increases quality and sustainability.

Coffee with a story and care

Most farmers in La Coipa operate small plots of land and process their coffee locally, often sharing wet mills and drying areas. Collaboration reduces costs, keeps knowledge in the region, and gives farmers more control over processing and marketing. This has led to the region moving away from commodity coffees to cleaner, more consistent batches that reflect local conditions.

By choosing coffee from La Coipa, you support long-term family livelihoods and careful work on farms, helping to keep coffee growing viable for generations.
