History of Kalena
The Procopio family, of Ukrainian origin, was built at the San Demetrio establishment of 3 Capones, where his parents had built the first secadero of the area. In 1977 they began to work their own yerba and the name Kalena came from the national flower of Ukraine.
Background
It's artisan and agroecological and in 2015 was elected the best yerba at the blind tasting at the Caminos and Tears fair.
