We’ve been buying from this co-op since we began roasting. It has been a constant. They are well known for producing wonderful coffee. This is not only available as a single origin coffee, but also makes up the bulk of our Kaleidoscope blend.
The Asopep co-op is in Planadas, Tolima. We were made aware of infrastructure issues at the co-op when we started buying. We were shown photos of school children crossing rivers on tree trunks with tiny hand rails to get to school as it’s a very mountainous and hilly region. We therefore decided to donate 1% of every cent you spend with us in order to embark on a bridge building program. So far we have built four with more to come. Last year, Monka, our Q Grader, visited the co-op and got to see both the people of the co-op and our bridges first hand. This coffee means a lot to us. We really hope you enjoy it.
