Origin Introduction:

Cauca Department, named after the Cauca River, is located in southwestern Colombia. Along with Nariño Department and Huila Department, it serves as one of Colombia's important specialty coffee producing regions.

Cauca is a Colombia Coffee Origin certified region with an average altitude of 1,758 meters, reaching up to 2,100 meters at its highest points. The region's topography, precipitation, temperature, and volcanic soil create ideal conditions for coffee cultivation.

The most significant climatic difference between Cauca and other producing regions is likely the relatively large temperature variation. The average daily temperature is 11°C, while the average daytime temperature reaches 18°C. This day-night temperature differential is a crucial factor in producing high-quality coffee. The cooler nighttime temperatures combined with higher altitudes slow down the coffee's growth rhythm, allowing coffee seeds and beans to more fully absorb nutrients from the coffee fruit. This also contributes to Cauca coffee's superior acidity and its notably special sweetness.

Following Colombia's excellent traditions, Cauca coffee is hand-picked and washed processed. Furthermore, while many coffee-producing regions have been replacing ancient coffee varieties with new ones to achieve better disease resistance and higher yields, Cauca region notably maintains predominantly Caturra varieties, along with ancient Typica and Bourbon varieties.

This batch comes from Colombia's Cup of Excellence special selection. Variety: Caturra, Processing: Fully washed, Sun-dried
