Peru Origin Trip 2010 Day 5
Day 5 is unfortunately about leaving the coffee growing region of Cusco. We are racing against the clock to be in the city of Cusco before midnight when the road strike begins. While it will be nice to see the city of Cusco and have a few hours to be a tourist it’s still deeply disappointing.While I feel the sourcing of these coffees is already underway, with impressive quality lots being put aside for us at Olympia Coffee Roasting Co.
