Coffee Bio
Huellas de Encanto is a group of 30 women coffee producers in Nariño, founded to strengthen women's role in coffee farming and create greater opportunities for their families and communities. The women manage their farms and make the key decisions at every stage of production.
Working together, the members share knowledge, improve quality and gain access to better markets, with the goal of fairer prices that strengthen household economies. “Huellas” (footprints) stands for the mark each woman leaves through her work and her coffee, and “Encanto” (charm) for the strength, warmth and values that define them.
Ripe cherries are hand-picked by the producers' families and community, floated and sorted, depulped and fermented in small batches for 40 to 70 hours. After washing, the coffee is sun-dried for 25 to 30 days.
Women of Nariño: resilience that inspires, traditions that endure, and a culture reflected in every cup of coffee.
