ABOUT THIS COFFEE
This lot comes is composed of harvests from 40 women
producers in the Villa Corzo area. Café Delas sources
green coffee from farming operations owned by women,
who are paid directly for their coffee. Perhaps most
importantly, the Café Delas program does not only
search for circumstances where women are the decision
makers behind a coffee, but also actively provides
support and education to women involved in coffee to
equip them to be leaders of their community.
The La Concordia region is known for producing excellent
coffee due to various factors, such as the agroclimatic
conditions of the area, altitude, soils, great diversity of
natural interactions and of course, the people who
through effort and care are able to produce the “Oro
Verde” (green gold as it is called). The small farmers in
this region take an artisan approach to their production,
taking their coffee from seed to dry parchment. The
coffees are picked ripe, de-pulped and fermented for 12-
17 hours. After the fermentation process, the coffee is
then washed and sun dried on farmers’ yards or zarandas in order to deliver the best qualities and high-
end profiles required.
