There is a tradition in Colombian coffee, where women pickers harvested coffee cherries in a traditional outfit called the Chapolera. These striking clothes would be seen in the landscape as the women traversed the farms, and from a distance would look like seagulls or "Gaviotas" in Spanish. That is where this coffee "Las Gaviotas" gets its name.
This coffee is produced by a community of 40 women who own farms ranging in size from one to five hectares. The women's association of which they are members is led by Ana Gloria Rodriguez. All members are committed to quality, driven by a profound passion and love for their land and region.
