Coffee for Peace, which is an alliance of coffee producers and others involved in the coffee industry, is fostering the peace process in historic conflict zones of Colombia by increasing the coffee producers’ income, improving coffee quality and further expanding the market.

Cauca is one such region. The altitude (1,780-1,830 metres), volcanic soil, proximity to the equator and the surrounding mountains, which protect the plants from the humidity of the Pacific Ocean, make this an area renowned for the quality of its coffee.

During the 10th Best of Cauca contest, supported by the Coffee for Peace initiative, 30 micro lots of extremely high-quality specialty coffee were auctioned off successfully, El Tambo being one of them. Produced by Lida Garzòn Muñoz, El Tambo is THE ultimate favourite of Charles Liégeois Roastery.
