Inza is back ! So clean and so fresh 
 
Inza,a municipality in the Cauca region of Colombia, is located on the high-altitude plateau of the Macizo Colombiano, with elevations exceeding 2,000 meters above sea level. This makes it an ideal area for cultivating specialty coffee. Inza is renowned for both its rich indigenous history and its coffee production. The area's historical roots date back to 1577, when Spaniard Sancho García de Espino established a camp where the town now stands. In 1737, Jesuits built a church, marking the start of Inza's growth into a town, which was officially recognized as a municipality by the Colombian government in 1907.
 
The Asociación de Productores de Café del Macizo Colombiano (Asorcafe) was established on July 11, 2003, in the town of Pedegral, Inza. Today, it has 290 members dedicated to producing specialty coffee. The association was created to help local coffee producers organize and market their coffee as a premium product. It also provides education and support to improve the economic and social conditions for the farmers, their families, and the community.
 
These small-scale farmers work on plots of land between 1.8 and 2 hectares, cultivating coffee at altitudes up to 2,100 meters. They grow varieties like Caturra, Typica, Bourbon, Tabi, Castillo, and Pink Bourbon. Traditionally, the coffee is fully washed. After harvesting, the beans are pulped and fermented for 20 to 40 hours, depending on environmental conditions. The coffee is then washed, sorted, and dried for 8 to 15 days in parabolic dryers, with drying time varying according to the weather.
