ABOUT PERUVIAN REGIONSLarge variations in landscape across the country produce more microclimates than any other coffee-growing region. Neighboring the South Pacific Ocean, the eastern coastal plains offer mild weather, which contrasts with the cold central Andes and western lowland jungle of the Amazon basin. In terms of coffee production, the territory is generally divided into north, central, and south. Regardless of the region, Peru's proximity to the equator means its coffees grow best at very high altitudes (1,200–1,800 masl) and often in volcanic soil.
