ASORCAFE
Cauca is a department of southwestern Colombia that is located mostly in the Andes. The region is host to part of the Andean Volcanic Belt, which lends high mineral content ideal for coffee growing.
This coffee is sourced from 52 smallholder coffee producers of the ASORCAFE Coop in Inzá, Cauca. These farmers typically own less than 2 hectares of land at altitudes ranging from 1,500m – 2000m above sea level. The association of coffee growers, ASORCAFE, was founded in 2004 by 10 coffee growers with an entrepreneurial spirit who were tired of private parchment buyers who were paying them below national prices. The region’s violent past, with a heavy presence of FARC guerrillas, had historically prevented the FNC (Colombia’s national coffee board) and specialty-focused exporters from establishing a presence in the region. In recent years, as violence has diminished, growers in the region have been able to seek increased access to markets for quality, and take advantage of the region’s wonderful coffee-growing conditions.
The resulting cup reminds us of chocolate & date squares.
