Geisha named Top 3 Rarest Coffee, International Auction Bolivia 2024/2025

Who we are

Bolivia grows less than 1% of the world's coffee, and some of its highest.

Slower maturation at these elevations creates exceptional clarity, structure, and a flavour profile found nowhere else.

Altura Andes brings that coffee from Bolivia and Peru directly to the UK. We are proudly Bolivian, carrying the warmth and traditions of our homeland into everything we do.

Los Yungas, Bolivia

Why altitude makes us different

Our coffee grows in some of the highest coffee-growing regions on earth. The result: rare, distinctive coffee found nowhere else.

  • 01

    Slower cherry development

    Cool temperatures let sugars and flavours build fully, for extraordinary depth.

  • 02

    Denser beans

    Harder, denser beans, prized for roasting and flavour retention.

  • 03

    Bright, vibrant acidity

    Cool nights and strong sun give a naturally lively, clean acidity.

The person behind the cup

Hi, I'm Brenda, founder of Altura Andes

Brenda Martinez, founder of Altura Andes, seated among stacked coffee sacks marked Bolivia, La Paz, Coffee
Brenda Martinez, Founder

I was born and raised in Bolivia, a country that will always be close to my heart. In 2020, I returned to my grandparents' land, where I began exploring the incredible potential of Bolivian coffee.

That journey became Altura Andes, a way to honour my family's roots, share some of Bolivia's finest coffees with the world, build meaningful relationships with local farmers, and give back to communities and children who need it most.

Rooted in Bolivia. Giving back.
