A note from Shared Source about Amigos del Huila:

This sub-regional blend from Huila is built from microlots from 9 of Shared Sources’ portfolio producers. These are all smallholders, ecological farmers, and all paid handsomely. This is a part of Shared Source's initiative to provide economic security to producer partners and to purchase a larger, broader range of their coffees.

This iteration of the Amigos del Huila blend comes from the micro-regions of San Agustín and Tarqui. The producers who contribute to this lot are all long-term partners of Shared Source and have all become close friends. Shared Source has given micro-financing to each producer individually on several occasions over the years, donated equipment, and has been supporting their ongoing efforts to convert to organic agriculture.
