Generalidades Guadalupe
The municipality of Guadalupe owes its name to the Virgin of Guadeloupe in Mexico. The coffee grows between 1,300 to 1,700 meters above sea level in the southwest of the Cordillera Oriental, where there are only few flat areas close by the "Suaza" and the smaller "Viciosa" river.
Guadalupe is a predominantly agricultural town, because its mild climate and fertile land permit so; their main product is coffee grown by families of coffee tradition, who with respect and love for the environment create and cultivate one of the most popular gourmet coffees in the world.
Guadalupe Coffee is certified by FAIRTRADE, UTZ certificates and Rainforest Alliance, who guarantee its unique quality, the traceability of the product and the respect for the environment.
Its sophisticated and vibrant coffee presents a perfect balance between a thin bright acidity, an intense floral aroma and a sweet taste of caramel.
