This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.

The story

The producers of K’uychi have been working together since 2015 to improve their farms and conserve local natural resources. The group formed to overcome historical isolation caused by regional guerrilla activity, which had previously hindered collective business efforts in the area.

Challenges

For decades, the community faced significant isolation and difficulty in establishing collective business efforts due to heavy guerrilla activity in the region.

Innovations

The producers have prioritized collective action to improve farm quality and environmental conservation, and they utilize a sugarcane-derived ethyl acetate process for their decaffeinated coffee.
