Description
Considered to be in the heart of the “Coffee Triangle (or coffee axis)”, the Caldas region is rich in coffee history. Colombia is a “World Heritage Site” when it comes to coffee. Weather conditions (8 °C to 24 °C), geographical (Andean Rainforest) and the geological region, determine the production of high quality coffee, with relatively short harvest periods. Farmers in the area have developed techniques for growing, harvesting and processing of coffee cherries, and all done “cherry by cherry”, and have retained this form of processing industry despite new techniques of mass agricultural industrialization.
