A taste of Cauca’s potential & its resilience; one of the two coffees that we secured at the 'Best of Cauca' auction last year. Together with a lot from producer Yhon Sánchez, these two Terroir driven and complex coffees come from the south of Cauca, where nutrient-rich soil and a perfect climate play a key role in producing some of Colombia’s most sought-after coffees. (Available as bundle here) 

This all exists against a backdrop of poverty, conflict, and limited infrastructure. Coffee farming offers a path forward in the region, an alternative to the still-dominant coca crops. The auction is an inspiration to many local farmers, showing that coffee can offer a sustainable future.

Why Best of Cauca Matters
The Best of Cauca auction was created to shine a light on the talent and dedication of coffee producers in a region often overlooked. For years, many farming communities in Cauca had few viable options for making a living and some turned to coca cultivation out of necessity, not choice.
This initiative offers a powerful alternative. By celebrating quality, paying fair prices, and connecting producers to international buyers, Best of Cauca proves that coffee can be more than a crop, it can be a path to stability, recognition, and long-term opportunity.
Behind every lot is a story of resilience, care, and commitment. And that’s exactly what this auction brings to the forefront once a year in the village of Arigela.

About Kevin Perafan
Some of his best coffee comes together in this lot. After a float to remove defects, cherries are fermented for 24 hours in plastic bags, boosting bright florals, then depulped and dried to a clean cup. Kevin was stunned to learn his coffee ranked in the region’s top 15, especially because that was not his main harvest. Fast forward to today: he’s setting his sights on the next auction, more ready than ever and driven to show the world the true potential of his commitment. A farmer to watch out for, because this recognition motivated him more than ever!
