Bolivia
There's no better way to learn about a coffee-producing country than to visit, and yet you can spend a lot of time in Bolivia and still not understand the complex relationship between coffee and culture. Bolivia has all of the ingredients to produce great coffee, especially in terms of altitude (plenty of that!) and seedstock (the plants are almost all traditional Typica varietal, with some Caturra). Much of the production is from traditional organic farming practices, with a lot of the co-ops certified Organic and Fair Trade as well.
But Bolivia coffee can be hard to source in terms of quality and cost. Because of this, we do not always have it in stock during the harvest season. You can read more about Bolivian green coffee, and link to our travelogues, on our Bolivia Coffee Library page.
