Pitaya coffee comes from a few farms in the municipality of Palestina, in southern Huila.
The Huila department is widely recognized both in Colombia and internationally as the country’s largest coffee producer by volume, while also being known for cultivating a significant amount of specialty-graded coffee, typically grown on small farms averaging 3-4 hectares.
18 lots from 12 producers make up this blend. All these lots have been carefully selected amongst dozens of others, in order to comply with the Pitaya profile.
Two producers make up 68% of the blend:
> Alirio Aguilera, the 2013 #1 COE winner with a washed Caturra and a dedicated coffee grower in Palestina ever since.
> Hugo Verdugo, who after the bankruptcy of his previous Caturra farm because of rust, went on cultivating 4 hectares of Pink Bourbon and now runs a profitable coffee business.
