Story
We sourced this coffee through Azahar and their Pickers Project Program. Like us, Azahar deals directly with producers, co-ops and growers’ associations to make sure transparent relationships with everyone involved in the process are being built. Located within the fertile hills of the municipality of Yacuanquer, this area seemed ideal for the project because of its characteristic natural qualities such as the availability of spring water, the right temperatures and an appropriate amount of sunlight. A neighborhood within the community known as El Naranjo, where almost everyone is related, both directly or indirectly, made it a fitting location for the Pickers Project to take off. This lot rounds out the fifth year of the Pickers Project and is an impressive result of Colombian coffee.
