The story of the Cocora Valley and the wax palm, so emblematic of the Quindío mountains, is deeply intertwined with the land, coffee, and the legacy of the indigenous communities who called this natural paradise home. The name "Cocora" comes from an ancient indigenous princess, daughter of the chief Acaime, who lived in the region before the arrival of the Spanish colonizers. In the native language, "Cocora" means "star of water," a name that reflects the spiritual and vital connection the indigenous peoples had with water resources and the majesty of their surroundings.

"Each cup is an invitation to discover the passion and legacy behind every bean".

The history of this region is not only marked by Princess Cocora but also by the hands of generations of coffee farmers who, for three generations, have diligently worked the fertile land of these mountains. Entire families have lived in harmony with the natural diversity, respectfully cultivating the coffee plant. Among mist-covered mountains and rivers winding through forests, where the coffee that proudly bears the name "Cocora Coffee" is grown. It is not just coffee; it is the result of centuries of history, tradition, and respect for nature. Just as the ancient indigenous peoples revered the stars and water, today’s coffee farmers honor the land and the coffee it yields, preserving a legacy of more than 200 years and safeguarding the environment for future generations.
