- More than 40 direct coffee and cacao producers from Cusco, Junín and the Selva Central are selling specialty beans, fine-aroma chocolate and natural products without intermediaries.
- A daily schedule of hands-on workshops covers filter methods, sensory tastings and extraction techniques while specialists lead talks on Peruvian cacao properties.
- Live barista demonstrations and signature iced coffees respond to unusually warm local temperatures and aim to show brewing methods that highlight bean quality.
