RNY On Location: Coffee in Colombia

Are you looking for fresh arrivals for the fall? Then Colombian coffee should be on your radar as you’re choosing your coffees to carry you through this upcoming holiday season! Senior Coffee Trader Camilo Yubank recently returned from a trip to Colombia where he visited three states to outsource some of the best coffee in Colombia offered this time of year.

Next, we have Tolima. The Department of Tolima is a mystical and magical place. Rivers run across tall mountains and a rolling fog encases the farms in the morning. Indeed, it’s like a picturesque view from a Garcia Marquez novel.

Specialty coffee farm in Tolima, Colombia

For many years, Tolima was inaccessible due to armed conflict with the FARC. Thankfully, the peace processes from the past seven years opened Tolima’s borders. Now, we can visit their farms and find the best quality coffee to offer you.

Due to partnerships with local associations like Suave and sustainable exporters like InConexus Coffee, we can offer a wide variety of lots from Tolima. Truthfully, we are proud to offer these complex, sweet, and balanced coffees that are certified organic.

Cauca

Finally, we have Cauca. Our coffee program in Cauca is an example of sustainability and win-win trade. Significantly, this is where a group of small producers in Inza work closely with Pergamino Café. Together, they have developed a vibrant and dynamic community of specialty coffee growers. Simultaneously, they are building a rural middle class that encourages the younger generations to continue the family tradition of being coffee farmers. Because of our coffee program, younger generations see an opportunity for economic prosperity and upward mobility.
