Introduction of origin:

In 1808, a preacher from the French Antilles introduced coffee through Venezuela and began the development of the coffee industry in Colombia. The Andes, known as the backbone of South America, extends to Colombia and is divided into eastern, central and western Codiera Mountains that run through the western border. The diverse topography cut out by highlands, steps and canyons provides a rich microclimate. There are several important traditional and high-quality coffee producing areas in Colombia.

The province of Ulla is the main producing area of high-quality boutique coffee in Colombia, especially in the town of San Augustin, where the Los Naranjos River, which means orange in Spanish, flows through. The hillsides on both sides of the river bank are covered with flowers and plants, which are the natural habitat for butterflies and hummingbirds, while local coffee farmers form community settlements near the mountains and rivers; ancient residents have left many giant stone carvings of special style in the nearby nature reserve called Cueva de los Quacharo, and the locals believe that the great natural forces of the forest protect their peaceful and peaceful homeland.

In 2001, local small coffee farmers gathered to upgrade their production management technology in order to enter the boutique coffee market and set up a production organization called La Asociacion Los Naranjos de San Augustin. The Farmers' Association has grown to a scale of 50 members, with a total area of 150ha growing coffee, with an average area of 2.8ha per smallholder farm. It produces about 1500 to 2000 kilograms per hectare in the main production season, while there is about 1 kg per hectare in the by-product season (Fly Crop, secondary harvest period). In the by-product season, since the independent output of each small farmer in Los Naranjos is less than the quantity required for a micro-batch, the output of small farmers with similar flavor in the cup is often gathered and mixed into a batch to sell. Los Naranjos's unique local conditions and commitment to quality improvement, in addition to a stable high-quality output, but also stood out in the 2009 SCAA American Fine Coffee Association annual meeting of 100 coffee samples, won the annual championship (SCAA COTY Winner) affirmation.
