\n\t\tANA RIASCOS HURTADO\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

When Maestra Ana was born, viche was already being distilled. She learned the craft from her grandparents and parents, who passed down their knowledge, thus continuing the tradition in her generation. She lives and grew up in Santa Rosa de Saija, and when she speaks of her territory, she feels overwhelmed with pride for her town: she loves its landscapes, its elegant stone beach, and the river that embraces it.<\/p>\n

Her childhood was marked by the harshness of viche production work. She vividly remembers the days when she would navigate up the river in a potrillo (a small wooden boat used in the Colombian Pacific to navigate), leveraging the waters to go to the cane fields and waking up at 2 a.m. to hand-grind the cane in the traditional mill. \"Now, thank God, there is the mill and one already goes in one's little boat...\" Viche was and is fundamental to her and her family's history. “Ahora, gracias a Dios, est\u00e1 el trapiche y uno ya va en su lanchita…”<\/em> Viche has been and continues to be fundamental for her and the history of her family.<\/p>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"escucha-ana\"\n\t\n
