Located in the northern mountainous region of Cajamarca, the Coop. Sol y Café cooperative was founded in 2008. Bordering Ecuador and the equator itself, the Cajamarca region enjoys consistent warm temperatures during the day and cool nights in the absence of clouds. On the one hand, this interaction of temperatures leads to a slower growth of the grains. On the other hand, slower growth results in very solid and more flavorful beans. Therefore, a microclimate prevails for exceptional coffee.
Coop. Sol y Café is made up of 59 local organizations of about 1,000 farmers, of which 10% are women. The members of the cooperative are dedicated to protecting their local environment by using the best sustainable agricultural practices. They collectively formulate environmental, agronomic, and economic decisions to help member families and communities develop and grow. Coop. Sol y Café holds Rainforest Alliance, Organic and Fairtrade certifications.
