The Grupo of Asociacion Palestina was formed in the year 2015 in the south part of the Huila region, department Palestina. The idea came up from a family initiative to improve the quality of life of coffee growers in this area. 

 

The Group comprises eight partners and 50 humble coffee-growing families. Together cultivate coffee on 200 hectares of land. During the harvest season, approximately 70 workers are hired to carry out the best selection of ripe coffees. The majority of these growers came from coffee-growing families and inherited their farms from their family line. And a few also received it as part of the government restitution program, which aims to keep the coffee tradition in the region.The classical varieties, such as Colombia, Caturra and Castillo, are mainly cultivated here. 

 

We can also see that some growers are open to experimenting and introducing so-called exotic varieties such as Tabi, Pink Borbon, or Gesha. Likewise, the group member keeps on the traditional washed process; they also innovate and manage prolonged fermentation, anaerobic, and natural coffee processing. The group has worked for hand in hand to increase their knowledge through training, clean water management, and infrastructure improvements that have demonstrated the quality of the cup of coffee they produce. 

 

La Cristalina is part of a program of natural processing in Huila. This to strive for modernization and innovation in the natal reduction of water use to the maximum for the benefit of coffee. The grower’s interest in natural processing has been achieved through continuous education on the importance of proper water use and its utilization. La Cristalina coffee owes its name that it has a crystal clean and sparkling cup despite being naturally processed coffee.
