SUSTAINABILITY
WE WORK HAND IN HAND WITH 84,000 COFFEE-GROWING FAMILIES IN HUILA.
WE CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH ARTISANAL AND ECO-FRIENDLY PRODUCTION.
WE WORK WITH THE WOMEN COFFEE GROWERS FROM OUR REGION
From germination, we care about every detail, so that from the very start to the moment it’s enjoyed in a cup, the coffee follows an impeccable process—reflected in the burst of sensations felt with each sip.
In partnership with the Asoguagueñas Women’s Association, we launched in 2023 the Mujer Caficultora Soca product line, which pays tribute to their role in the production process and supports their social and economic development.
SOCA ESSENCE
Woman is the symbol of resilience, unconditional love, passion, and above all, absolute care in every step of the process. Just as we witness the birth, growth, and guidance of our children, we do the same with our coffee seeds…

Coffee grounds are the sandy residue left in your coffee machine after brewing a delicious espresso—or any type of coffee. Weusually throw it away, but… what if we told you that you can re-use it to expand your recipe repertoire? Discover how!
