Regional details

When discussing coffee profiles from Nariño, much is attributed to two volcanos (Doña Juana in the north and Galeras in the south) responsible for many of the rich mineral traits found in the soil composition.

Nariño’s proximity to the equator also means intense exposure to the sun (relatively constant and powerful year-round), which influences the cherry maturation rate.

The municipality of Buesaco adds an interesting micro-climate where warm air rises from the canyons at night and acts like a protective blanket for the coffee plants.

As a result of these combined attributes, coffee plants passively absorb the sun’s energy during the day and then come alive at night when the conditions are less harsh.

This translates into concentrated flowering and long cherry maturation periods.

All of these factors
