13 unnamed farmers of San Pedro de Cartago
The 13 unnamed farmers of San Pedro de Cartago are a group of smallholder producers located in the Nariño department of southwestern Colombia. They cultivate coffee at high elevations ranging from 1,600 to 2,000 meters above sea level. Their work is documented through partnerships with specialty roasters who highlight their production of the Castillo variety. These farmers utilize traditional selective harvesting and washing methods to maintain quality standards in the region.
History
For the exact release, the farmers selectively picked and floated cherries, held them for 12–14 hours, pulped them, fermented the coffee for 24–48 hours, and dried it on patios or in parabolic dryers for 15–21 days. Earlier La Plata, Huila names on this record came from a different coffee and were removed.
