Deep in Huila, southwestern Colombia, lies the majestic Andes Mountains—the world’s longest mountain range. This stunning region is framed by the Nevado del Huila volcano (Colombia's highest volcano) and the Magdalena River (the country's longest river). Here, a breathtaking mix of glaciers, volcanoes, grasslands, deserts, lakes, and forests creates the ideal environment for producing some of the world's finest coffee varieties.
