History

I have been a coffee grower for more than 10 years. However our farm “la Esperanza” was an inheritance that my have got 5 years ago. Once we received the land, we started renewing the crops, and step by step we built the house we live now. I am a grower dedicated to my family and my farm. I like producing quality coffee.

Environmental Care

There is a natural source of fresh water in the farm which we love, because we take the water we need from there. We dont cut the native forest and we have a good handling of the soils. We take good care of the nature and it is possible to see in our farm.

Coffee Processing Information

We only pick up ripe beans. Depulped process is done in dry, fermentation takes 16 hours approximately, then we wash the beans with fresh water. We dont mix coffee from different pickings. We use parabolic sun driers.
