The Story Behind Coffee
This coffee is produced by smallholder farmers in the municipality of Inzá, part of the Tierradentro region located in western Cauca. This region is 80% inhabited by the indigenous Paez tribe. The average farm size is 0.5 to 1.5 hectares.
We collaborate with our friends at Occicafe and Globalcafe, through whom we can maintain a direct relationship with the farmers and better control the quality. The farmers own small plots where they grow coffee at 1,700 meters above sea level, and the crops are primarily Castillo and Caturra.
This coffee has been fermented in water for approximately 24-36 hours. After fermentation, the coffee was sun-dried on patios and raised beds until it reached a moisture content of approximately 10-11%.
