Sierra Nevada, Santa Marta, Colombia (fair trade, organic plants)

Flavor characteristics:

The palate is delicate, with hints of dragon fruit, almonds, milk chocolate and a hint of licorice. The alcohol is medium and the acidity is low.

Coffee background:

AsoProKia is an abbreviation for the Spanish word "producers Association, Kia". The word "Kia" itself is taken from Alvako Creole, which means "natural" or "authentic".

Alvako is an indigenous people of Colombia, an agricultural tribe that stretches across dense forests and fertile valleys of northern Colombia. The word was chosen to prove that AsoProKia cooperatives maintain a harmonious relationship with the Alvako people.

With a trickle of water from the Sierra Nevada highlands of Santa Marta, Kia organically grown coffee has a unique flavor and aroma, growing between 1300 and 1800 meters in Pueblo Belo Cesar.

Background of the cooperative:

For decades, producers in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of Santa Marta have faced great sacrifices and hardships to grow high-quality coffee.

In order to improve the conditions of these farmers, the Santa Marta Sierra Nevada Rural producers Association ("ASOPROAGROCASN") established a special coffee assistance program with the Coffee grower sector Committee of Cesar and Guajira.

The project will restore, develop and protect the ecosystem under Japan Oil pump Co., Ltd., Japanese agricultural standards, and national fair market ecological production standards in Europe and the United States.

While respecting the world view of the Arhuaca nation, our main purpose is to implement social investment so that our growers cultivate Kia coffee without affecting animals and plants. Seeking to improve our Sierra Nevada environment as the main goal, AsoProKia Coffee cultivation proposes to balance the protection of ecosystems and their archaeological and ancestral wealth, and we must protect the greatest heritage of the land composition.
