FROM OUR IMPORTERS - COFINET

Gaitania is a village located in the Planadas municipality in the department of Tolima. Planadas has a story that contributed to the charm of their people and of the department itself. It was a region in which political prisoners were sheltered from the Liberal party. Over time both parties, Liberales and Conservadores, established a good relationship consequently leading to the famous kindness of people from Planadas to be well-known throughout the country.

This coffee is produced by the indigenous community “Nasa Wesx” of Gaitania. The Nasa Wesx live in different indigenous territories in Cauca, Huila, and Tolima. Our friends from the ACEDGA and ASCISP cooperatives work collaboratively with this community.
