Reinel Quipo - Cauca Inza, Colombia

This special lot has been grown by Reinel Quipo on 4 hectares around the town of La Palmera in the Inzá municipality. Known in Colombia as La Tierra Adentro. The Inza municipality consists of the villages Belén, La Palmera & San Vicente de Pedregal, San Antonio. Coffee producers are part of the Asorcafe Producers’ Association.

Asorcafe was founded in 2004 by ten coffee growers who were tired of selling their coffee to parchment buyers who only offered prices below the national market. Asorcafé exudes an entrepreneurial spirit as they have become leaders of their coffee growing region. Asorcafé, in conjunction with private and state organizations, provides aid to their members including subsidies for domestic economy, education, job training, and healthcare services.

This is a beautiful coffee brought to us by our friends at Red Fox Coffee Merchants.
