Venezuela EICEV Auction Coffee

Hosted by the Venezuelan Government's coffee promotion agency, Café de Venezuela, the EICEV is a bi-annual coffee competition and auction. This latest competition was composed of 18 auction lots that were selected by 26 international tasters. This coffee was produced by Kelly Andrade representing Finca La Curva.

Finca La Curva

A third-generation coffee growing family estate, Finca La Curva recently began focusing on specialty coffee production in the last 2 years and is dedicated to producing quality coffee.

Alongside coffee production, this family farm works with 715 local producers to provide technical assistance, financial advice, traceability, and processing assistance. They are located north of Mèrida and employ many of the locals from the surrounding 16 small communities, many of which have been involved in coffee production for generations.

They were one of the first farms to introduce Coffee Rust resistance varieties of coffee in Venezuela and have numerous nurseries where they have experimented crossing varieties and produce all their own seedlings.
