LIGHT ROAST
Yuppie is the coffee of the new generation of indigenous coffee growers in Colombia. Rather than study or work in the big cities, young growers have decided to help each other restore hope to the future of Colombian coffee, within the ASOCANAFI association. Together, they manage several plantations and process the coffee in the shared washing station provided by the association. Sustainability, the environment and quality are the watchwords that guide their day-to-day production. "Yuppie" means hope and joy, two terms that resonate particularly well with the young Colombian producers responsible for creating the association.
Each family owns between 2 and 4 hectares of protected lands, with over 6,000 trees per hectare. They are the guardians of one of Colombia's largest nature reserves. This land and their beliefs in caring for Mother Earth make them the best allies for producing one of Colombia's most respectful coffees, using organic farming practices.
