Mokaflor FARM Colombia Inzà Cauca 250 g in beans

The municipality of Inza is located on the Colombian plateau, or as it is locally called the “Colombian Macizo” which surrounds the high peaks of Tolima and Huila. 

This region, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, is an important source of water and wildlife as well as being renowned for the production of coffee. This batch was produced by 52 small coffee producers in the region who are members of the ASORCAFE organization (Asociación de Productores de Café del Oriente Caucano) by selecting coffees produced in two neighboring municipalities: Pedregal and San Antonio. 

The botanical varieties used are 70% Caturra and 30% Colombia Each microlot was tasted and selected to have obtained scores above 85 points during the cupping carried out in the quality laboratory. The coffee farmers' association, ASORCAFE, was founded in 2004 by 10 coffee farmers, tired of seeing their crop purchased at prices below the national average. 

The violent past of this Colombian region, with a strong presence of FARC guerrillas, had in fact historically prevented the FNC (Federacion National de Cafeteros) and specialized exporters from establishing a presence in the region. Fortunately, violence has decreased in recent years and has allowed farmers in the region greater access to markets for the quality coffee produced and an additional economic resource brought by nearby tourist destinations such as the “Parque nacional Arguelogico de Tierradentro”, a heritage site of UNESCO humanity. In the cup this coffee has a velvety body, citrus and caramel notes and a sweet and spicy aftertaste reminiscent of cinnamon When tasted according to the SCA protocol this lot obtained 85.25 SCA points.
