Nariño, nestled in the southwest of Colombia, has long witnessed its residents harness the numerous virtues of this region, particularly the nutrient-rich volcanic soil. The coffee crops thrive at elevations between 1,900 and 2,100 meters above sea level on the steep slopes of the Galeras Volcano. These verdant hills occasionally receive a delicate layer of volcanic ash, enriching the soil with essential minerals that contribute to the robust health and superior quality of the coffee trees.
Coffee from Nariño is renowned globally and within Colombia for its exceptional qualities. The intense and distinct aroma, coupled with high acidity, sweetness, and an unparalleled flavor profile, positions Nariño coffee among the highest quality standards.
The local small-scale producers cultivate their coffee in a temperate climate, with a median temperature of 13 degrees Celsius. Located near the equator, the region benefits from extended daylight hours and warm evenings due to its topography, creating an incubating effect that shields the coffee plantations during cooler nights. This unique environment results in slower tree growth, enhancing the sweetness and pleasing acidity of the coffee cherries. The challenge of cultivating coffee at high altitudes, with warm days and Andean cold nights, is a tradition proudly upheld by our producing partners in Nariño for generations.
The Andean landscape of Nariño, particularly the Andes mountain range forming the Los Pastos knot, stands out as the most remarkable feature in the region. This knot gives rise to the Western Cordillera and the Cordillera Centro, a collection of parallel mountain ranges that contribute to the distinctive character of Nariño’s coffee.
