Colombia Coocentral – this coffee is a blend of smallholder lots sourced from Coocentral, a progressive cooperative located in one of the most famed growing regions in Colombia, Huila. We have worked with Coocentral for four years now and watched the incredible progess of their farming communities. Services that Coocentral provide range from basic purchase and milling services all the way to financial support and agronomic services. They also have their own cafes to provide producers with the opportunity to sell their coffee to the internal market as well as export.

In 2011, it was recognized as Geographical Indication (IG), in the modality Indication of Origin (PGI) for its tradition and worldwide reputation for producing specialty coffees with a highly differentiated sensory profile. This regional lot from small holder farmers particularly stood out for its intense red fruit profile not commonly found in Brazil.
