Our partners Siruma have sourced this coffee from growers in the Macizo Colombiano, a mountainous area that stretches over the states of Cauca, Tolima and Huila, in the west of Colombia. The area forms a plateau that is rich with volcanic soil and abundant with water.
The coffee growers here are part of the Asorcafe co-operative, based in and around the towns of Inza and Pedegral. Members typically cultivate their coffee at around 2100M, on small plots of around 2 hectares.
As is typical in Colombia the coffees in this lot were selectively hand-harvested and then processed using the washed method at each farm’s ‘micro-beneficio’ before being delivered to Asorcafe where they were selected by cup quality and profile to make up this specially prepared micro-lot.
