ADDITIONAL INFO
The city of Popayan is the capital of the state of Cauca, in the southern half of Colombia. The surrounding coffee region is on the plateau where the Andes mountain range reaches southern Colombia from Ecuador.
The Cauca and Popayan plateau is at an average of 1,600 meters above sea level and includes the neighboring Purace volcano, which has, over time, produced the region's rich soil.
Coffee farms in the region are usually smaller than 5 hectares. The region is also home to several indigenous groups that have been growing coffee for decades.
There are two rainy seasons that produce a main crop and a mid crop – or mitaca – guaranteeing fresh coffee year round. All cherries are handpicked and then pulped and washed on the farms.
The area’s soil conditions, altitude and washed processing lead to coffees that generally have a very nice aroma, a medium acidity and a medium body. These features combine to present a pleasant, sweet, chocolate aftertaste.

FARM INFO
This coffee is sourced from a family-owned farm in Meto Gundb. The owner, Lemma Edeto, began working in coffee 60 years ago and has passed down his knowledge to his sons, Nigusse and Haile, who operate the farm. The farm sits at the highest elevation in the region with old growth shade trees, naturally spring-fed streams, and native varietals of heirloom coffee that grow organically by default. The family also mills the coffee, giving them full control of the processing up to the final export stage.
