This coffee honors the people of Huila, known as Opitas, a name rooted in history. During the independence era, “Opa” was a secret code used by locals in the province of Neiva to signal unity and the fight for freedom. Over time, Opita became a warm term for their descendants, symbolizing the region’s enduring spirit of pride, kindness, and community.
Huila stands out as the country's top producer of specialty coffee by volume. Known for its award-winning quality, Huila has earned a Denomination of Origin thanks to its consistent excellence. Most farms in the region are small, family-run operations that typically cultivate Castillo and Cenicafé varieties, occasionally blending in Caturra or Pink Bourbon.
Grown at 1,500–1,800 masl, the coffee underwent a 36-hour traditional fermentation, was washed, and sun-dried in parabolic dryers for 15 days.
To us, Opita is more than a regional identity, it’s a tribute to the hardworking coffee-growing communities of southern Huila, whose pride and dedication shape every cup.
