This special 40kg microlot comes from Las Alasitas, a small farm owned byPedro Rodrguez. Over the last decade, under the banner of Agricafe, Pedro and his family have worked tirelessly to build the production of, and market for, Bolivian specialty coffee, helping hundreds of local farmers recognise and realise the potential of their land and crops. Las Alasitas is located in the colonia of Bolinda, which lies in a lush, steep mountain valley around 10 kilometres outside of the town of Caranavi. The colonia of Bolinda was founded 52 years ago and was once known as 'Bolivia Linda' or 'Beautiful Bolivia'. Over the years this name was shortened to Bolinda, and it is now one of the larger settlements in the area.
