Our dream started to become a reality on February/2012 when the first batch of our coffee made it to Calgary. This story goes back to 1988 when my in laws bought that piece of land and started to turn it around with their own hands. A rich volcanic soil provides for some of the best specialty coffees of Colombia.  It is deep in the Nariño department, in the subdivision of Veracruz, where a micro climate is conceived, at an altitude of 2,100 meters still able to receive warm winds from the Patia Valley. Here, the traditional selective harvesting and sun dry processes carried out in "artisan" cultivation yields the ideal conditions for a cup of outstanding quality. Only with the strength of the artisans carrying  these volumes on their back, can this quality product make its way to your cup. While in full compliance with environmental and social sustainability standards, Alta Montaña Coffee as a family owned business vows to provide a product fruit of a fighting community that protects its land while keeping the balance with Mother Nature.
