Colombia, San Vicente (Huila) coffee

This coffee is grown in a cooperative of small producers in the village of San Vicente, 10 kilometres from the town of La Plata in the province of Huila, Colombia.

The Huila region is naturally blessed with a superb geography, extremely suitable for coffee growing, but the key to the excellent quality of the coffee is the farmers themselves. Coffee is mostly grown on small farms, with around 80% of growers farming less than 3 hectares. These small coffee fields are taken care of by the families themselves, and only very rarely they use contracted labour. This encourages careful harvesting practices and great pride in the final product, which becomes almost as the part of the family.

We have crafted this coffee roast primarily with filter brewing methods in mind.
