Origin and Traceability: Quindío

Despite being the second smallest department in Colombia, Quindío accounts for approximately 6% of the national coffee production, establishing itself as a highly prestigious origin within the Coffee Region. Its mountains, with altitudes ranging from 1,200 to 1,800 meters above sea level, and its volcanic soils create an ideal environment for coffees to develop their own unique character and complexity in the cup.

Quindío is also a reflection of history and culture. Its towns preserve colonial facades, plazas, and traditions that evoke the region’s coffee-growing heritage, where each crop is linked to the identity and life of the community.

Of the department’s 12 municipalities, most are dedicated to coffee cultivation, with Génova and Montenegro standing out among our selection. At the Montenegro farm, for example, women lead production, contributing their care and expertise at every stage of cultivation. The Quindío coffees we offer combine sweet and smooth profiles with more intense and fruity options, showcasing the diversity of microclimates and local techniques. Each cup reflects the altitude, the soil, the tradition, and the human talent that make this region a true coffee treasure.
