For the past four years, Aroma Nativo has been building relationships between Colombian coffee producers and roasters from all over the world.

This year, Luis Marcelino, founder of Aroma nativo, goes even further by launching the Veci project, a collaborative coffee production between producers who have good agronomic practices but who lack infrastructure, space on the farm to process their coffee.
