    • History of coffee in Bolivia

      Coffee arrived in Bolivia in the late 18th century during Spanish colonial rule. For over a century, production remained small, relying on indigenous labour. It wasn’t until the early 20th century that coffee farming expanded, helped by land reforms that gave more ownership to local farmers. As the industry grew, organisations like ANPROCA and FECAFEB emerged to support production and exports.

      Despite its ideal growing conditions, Bolivia remains a small producer. Coffee rust, pests, and poor infrastructure have made farming difficult, while low prices have driven many growers to abandon their crops. Being landlocked also creates export challenges, making it harder for Bolivian coffee to reach global markets.

      In response, the country has shifted its focus from quantity to quality. With small organic farms set at high altitudes, Bolivia is now recognised for producing exceptionally sweet, high-quality specialty coffee.

    • When is the best time to source Bolivian coffee?

      If you are looking to source specialty coffee beans from Bolivia, it is best to begin sourcing a few months before the main harvest season begins in May. This will give you a much better chance of obtaining coffee from the best lots. You can then expect your shipments to commence throughout the harvest season.

    • How to buy and import coffee from Bolivia?

      When sourcing specialty coffee from Bolivia, start by researching the country’s coffee associations and cooperatives. The National Coffee Producers Association (ANPROCA) and the Federation of Coffee Exporters of Bolivia (FECAFEB) are good starting points, as they can help connect you with the right producers.

      Digging deeper into Bolivia’s farms will give you an edge, helping you discover the best specialty lots. Once you’ve identified potential producers, reach out directly to understand their practices—many offer visits or virtual tours.

      When you’re ready to proceed, ensure all paperwork and certifications are in order before arranging shipments.

    • What does Bolivian coffee taste like?

      Bolivian coffee is known for its delicate flavour profile and bright acidity. Expect vibrant fruity notes—apple, pear, citrus, and apricot—balanced by deeper hints of chocolate and caramel. The result is a clean, aromatic cup with a lingering, satisfying finish.
