Remolinos refers to the swirls or whirlpools that occur frequently in the many rivers that run down the mountains and valleys of South Huila. This region is very fertile for agriculture. It is at the doorstep of a UNESCO Biosphere reserve, the Colombian Massif, a place where mountains meet and rivers are born, which holds about 70% of Colombia’s freshwater for consumption and irrigation.
The Pink Bourbon varietal has managed to captivate a large number of producers in southern Huila due to its resistance to rust, high productivity and high cup quality.
