ORIGEN
UPÍA
Impacting bean-to-bar chocolate makers and smallholder farmers’ lives through fine flavor cacao.
This origin comprises the surrounding Upia River in municipalities Barranca de Upia and Cabuyaro in the Meta Department of Colombia.
This region has given us an amazing welcome with the warmth of its people, the richness of its soil and exuberant biodiversity, and the flavor profiles of its cacao.
With a tradition of big areas dedicated to palm oil and rice production, cacao appears as an inclusive and sustainable alternative for smallholder farmers.
