This coffee was produced by Gloria Gómez on her small farm, El Nogal, located near the town of El Tabor, in the municipality of Inzá in Cauca state, Colombia.
El Nogal (which translates to ‘the walnut tree‘ in Spanish) is just one and a half hectares in size – typical for the region, where farmers grow and process coffee on tiny plots of land. The farm is located at a staggering 2,000m above sea level, in the steep hills that surround El Tabor. Gloria has lived in El Tabor her entire life, and is a member of the influential Gómez family, who are highly respected by the town’s coffee growing community. Gloria and her three siblings started their careers in coffee-growing at their parent’s farm, La Argentina. Over time, they have each saved enough money to buy their own plots, though they continue to work together to manage their collective plantations during the season.
A methodical and entrepreneurial producer, Gloria has placed her focus on producing specialty-grade coffee. With the premiums she has received for her crop she has been able to build a new house on El Nogal, where she now lives with her daughter and granddaughter.
