ABOUT THE COFFEE
We've been sourcing from El Cairo for over 5 years, and it just keeps getting better...
Faiber’s farm is up in the mountainous Huila region, only accessible by bumpy off-road tracks - but worth the journey! The orange and mandarin flavours found in this coffee are really representative of coffees from this region of Colombia. The citrus flavour of El Cairo coffee is something we really look forward to tasting each year - and hasn’t disappointed us yet. The citric acidity complements the flavours of orange and the ripe fruit sweetness, and the mouthfeel is syrupy and coating.

ABOUT THE FARMER
El Cairo was actually one of the first farms Pact Coffee started a Direct Trade relationship with, back in 2014.
We’ve bought from Faiber since 2014. Today his farm is thriving, but it wasn’t always that way. When we first met, Faiber and his family were living in a dilapidated farmhouse - mud floors, hole-ridden roof, and one large room. Coffee farming wasn’t a great life for any of them. But through our Three Phase Programme, we made improvements to their building and farm equipment so they could boost their coffee quality and invest back into their family life - including a new roof/drying bed and a new washing station. Now their coffee is better than ever, the family happier than ever. His son Mauricio is even following his footsteps, and now owns a farm of his own!
