Organic Heavenly Project - High Altitude Blend

This coffee comes to us from Asociación Regional la Cascada de Bordones (The Regional Association La Cascada de Bordones). A fully washed lot, this coffee is grown in the department of Huila at an altitude ranging from 1700-1850masl and is patio dried. Asociación Regional la Cascada de Bordones was founded on March 16, 2003, through the initiative of a group of coffee farmers. They sought opportunities to improve the quality of life for both farmers and their families. The association’s name was inspired by the Bordones waterfall in Huila, which is the second largest waterfall in Colombia with one of the most beautiful landscapes. The word “Huila” comes from the Páez indigenous language and translates to “luminous mountain,” likely due to the topographical variety of the region. Huila’s climate is influenced by several snow-capped volcanoes in the Andes mountains that provide rich minerals to the soil. Additionally, the valleys of the Magdalena River attract the tropical air of the Caribbean. Altogether, these

A group of smallholder farmers from Bener Meriah, Sumatra came together to produce this regional blend. In this region, coffee farms average at just 0.5 – 2 hectares each. Bener Meriah is nestled around the northern shore of Lake Tawar and dominated by the imposing Burni Telong volcano. The process of producing coffee from groups of smallholder coffee farmers in Sumatra is complicated and involves many steps. Every village typically has a collector who receives the fresh-picked cherry from the smallholder coffee farmers for washed processing each day before continuing on to the central mill. For this coffee, PT Indokom Citra Persada managed the composition of the coffee, quality, milling and exporting. PT Indokom Citra Persada is an export group that works throughout Indonesia’s coffee regions, but who has a dedicated mill and operations team in Aceh.

This coffee is sourced from smallholder coffee producers across Southern Tanzania, particularly the Mbeya, Mbozi, and Ruvuma regions, where the majority of Tanzania’s coffee production takes place. Most farmers manage small family-owned plots of approximately 0.5–3 hectares, cultivating Arabica coffee at elevations across Tanzania’s mountainous highlands. Producers work through cooperatives, farmer groups, and local processing organizations that provide access to processing infrastructure, quality improvement programs, and specialty coffee markets. Depending on the specific lot, the coffee may be processed using either washed or natural methods. Washed coffees are carefully pulped, fermented, washed, and dried, while natural coffees are dried with the fruit intact, often on raised drying beds. Through partnerships with local producer organizations, Sucafina Tanzania supports improvements in coffee quality, farmer training, traceability, and sustainable production practices, helping Southern Tanzania’s smallholder farmers reach specialty coffee markets.
