La Cacica is a Colombian coffee grown by 100 families from the municipality of Oporapa. La Cacica is sold as a “relationship coffee”, a transparent method where all entities that take part in the commercialization of the coffee are aware of the costs involved in the process. This means that trust is developed amongst all parties and it incentivizes coffee growers to continue working on improving their quality. The association was established in 1985, made up of coffee growers that have an average farm size of four hectares. The co-operative has introduced the farming families to environmentally friendly growing and processing techniques. La Cacica owes its name to the Cacica Oporapa, the native female chief that ruled the region before Spanish conquers appeared.
