Since 2022, it has been running the Fellows Farms project, an initiative through which it collaborates with partner farms in Huila and Cauca. They purchase coffee from these small-scale producers at a premium price. They also provide training on best practices in farming and harvesting. Additionally, this project works with AMCAPEC, an association of women coffee farmers from the municipalities of Tambo, Piendamó, and Caldono (Cauca). In short, it is a wonderful project that helps small-scale producers sell their coffee in a more transparent way and with greater profit.
All the coffee from this project is processed at the La Inmaculada farm, which guarantees consistency and full traceability for each lot.
Process
The cherries from the various neighboring farms are received at la Inmaculada. A flotation selection is performed to separate leaves, stones, and low-density cherries. They then undergo electronic sorting to select cherries with optimal ripeness. This is followed by manual sorting. Finally, the highest-quality cherries are destoned, washed, and undergo a controlled drying process. For this batch, drying lasted 15 days until a moisture content of 10.5% was reached.
