A cool Andean morning lifts from the valley and the first cups are already steaming on a low wooden table. Rows of coffee bushes run down a gentle slope; breeze teases bright red cherries and draws the scent of earth and bloom into the air. Led by Luis Alejandro or one of his sons, visitors move from seedbeds to drying patios, following the bean through hands-on steps that turn green cherries into the dark, fragrant grounds poured at the end.
