This organization seeks to provide the necessary tools to make this possible.

Representante – Isabel Paz Correa – Zona: Chirinos
Secretario – Olga Calle Chumacero – Zona: Ihuamaca

Rony Lavan of Lima Coffees is an ambitious and quality-driven cupper who has spent his career trying to carve out better and bolder coffees from small producers in Peru. While the country is emerging as a specialty market after many years of focusing on bigger lots and certifications, Rony's passion is with identifying and developing the top scores and the best cups. Green-coffee buyer Piero Cristiani met Rony before Piero was buying coffee for Cafe Imports, and the two have not only stayed professionally connected all these years, but they have also become great friends. Rony and Piero worked hand and hand to bring this new project to life.
