Filter - Los Guacharos, Colombia

Los Guacharos are a group of independent, quality-focused small producers in Bruselas, Southern Huila. The group is collectively converting to organic agriculture, making their own fertilizers and fungicides, installing complex water filtration systems that use gravity, stones and sand to remove all mucilage residues from waste water to not contaminate water systems.

The members of the group have started the conversion to fully ecological and regenerative production, close to biodynamics. The Guacharos produce a brew called Super Magro, made up of organic minerals and waste products, molasses, bone ash and manure. It is then fermented with microorganisms collected from virgin soils and used as a fertilizer and protectant from disease. The Super Magro is edible, incredibly effective, and represents a producer-driven grassroots movement empowering producers to increase soil health, reduce costs and stop dependence on chemicals.

This lot is made up of coffee from five individual producers, farming Caturra and variedad Colombia varieties. Cherries are picked as ripe as can be, depulped the same day, fermented until they reach their ideal washing point for maximum sweetness, and fully washed.
