Ocaso Sustainable Coffee is a company dedicated to the production and marketing of Specialty Coffee.<\/p>\n

Ocaso Sustainable Coffee is produced in Salento, Quindio \u2013 Colombia. Our philosophy is one of single-origin. Our coffee is also a shade-grown, and undergoes a mostly organic process in which once the coffee has been carefully hand-selected by local single mothers, it undergoes a detailed, controlled ripening process. This is why our 9 editions are high-profile products.<\/p>\n

Shade-grown Coffee: Double shade, double experience<\/p>\n

Our location including height, weather and topography allow us to produce a shade-grown Coffee with the remarkable aroma and flavour of Ocaso Sustainable Coffee. Double shading means having diffetente height trees in between the Coffee Plantation. We have more than 60 different tree species in our crops.<\/p>\n

Usually shade-grown Coffee has better flavour. The shading technique improves the soil, air and water quality, it also allows a slower rippening process for the Coffee beans which increases sugar and acidity responsible substances production in them, obtaining a Coffee with a more complex body and flavour.<\/p>\n

Finally, shade-grown Coffee has multiple enviromental benefits such us drecreased soil erosion as well as reduction in the use of pesticides and increased organic matter.<\/p>\n

Ocaso Sustainable Coffee has 70 per hectares of land with 12 different especies in each one. These trees make up a 40% of the plantatuin shade. 60% of the fertilizer is organic and produced in our farm.<\/p>\n

Coffee grown under double-shadow often tastes better. Shadow improves the conditions of the ground, air and water and allows the generation of micro-wheaters inside the coffee plantations to have cooler environments, which help to reduce the stress of the plantation in summer, allowing the coffee to mature more slowly, which results in the production of more sugars and substances responsible for the perceived acidity in coffee, giving it more body and a full and complex flavor.<\/p>\n

SUSTAINABLE OCASO COFFEE uses 70 different trees per acre in its cultivation, having 12 different trees species in each one. These trees form three arboreal strata and generate a shade of 40% of the plantation. Likewise, 60% of its fertilizer is organic and produced on the farm.<\/p>\n
