This is how pepper plants ended up in Peru and pepper flourished there. In the sixties, the grandfather of the Yupanqui family decided to plant pepper seeds in Peru, his grandson David, seeing that the pepper plants acclimatize perfectly, moved some plants to Ecuador in the Manabi region and that is how the Yupanqui pepper was born. The Yupanqui family has been producing this pepper for over thirty years. They are located in a forest region close to zero latitude, offering them a climate and land favorable to the cultivation of pepper and spices. Their ancestral production technique as well as their proximity to the ocean ensure an incredible taste to this pepper.
