This is a region of extremes, where tropical jungle meets icy Andean peaks and mineral-rich soils push coffee growing to its limits. Elevation defines everything here.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReaching Sandia requires a five-hour journey from Juliaca into the jungle valleys. At elevations above 1,600 meters, conditions are ideal for slow, even coffee maturation. Alto Inambari, named for the highest reaches of the Inambari River, climbs even higher, with farms approaching 3,000 meters above sea level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrimitiva Apaza Quea has been growing coffee on her farm, Paltaypampa, for more than a decade. Named for the indigenous Quechua phrase meaning “the mountain where avocados grow,” the farm spans two hectares planted with Caturra and Typica. Harvest takes place between August and September.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCherries are hand-picked, fermented for 16 to 20 hours, then washed and dried slowly on raised beds under parabolic dryers. Drying is guided by experience and sensory evaluation, resulting in a coffee that reflects both place and process.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrimitiva has worked with Red Fox Coffee Merchants since the beginning of their work in Puno over a decade ago, helping bring long-term stability and recognition to a remote region with exceptional quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1768\/8259\/files\/IMG_6909.jpg?v=1770763443\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoyalCoffee","offers":[{"title":"12oz","offer_id":47707867676930,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":47707867709698,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":47707867742466,"sku":null,"price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1768\/8259\/files\/202602_RetailBag_92_e66abe7e-8e91-425e-962a-256416e72483.png?v=1771187439","url":"https:\/\/loyalcoffee.co\/products\/coffee-92","provider":"Loyal Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
