DECAF Atunkaa – Colombia

Siruma is a Colombian coffee company founded five years ago to partner with underserved farming communities in Cauca, Caldas, and Tolima. With an emphasis on social aspects and transparency, they primarily collaborate with indigenous communities that cultivate excellent coffee but need its marketing and export assistance. The company’s name comes from the indigenous Wayuunaiki language and means “Heaven and Skies.” Atunkaa, the name of this coffee, comes from the same language, which translates to “sleep and sleepy dreams.” The coffee is decaffeinated by Descafecol using a sustainable sugarcane‍-‍based process.

Castillo is the most widespread coffee variety grown in Colombia. It is characterized by high resistance to coffee rust and small bushes, which allows for dense planting. This means a large number of fruits in a relatively small space. Castillo produces coffee with good taste quality and has a significant share in Colombian coffee production.
