History

I was born in the Getzen village; I come from a coffee growers family. 25 years ago I bought the farm Los Andes and I started with the crops of Caturra variety. I've been focuses in the production of quality coffee.

Environmental Care

We use to take care of the natural forests we have in the farm, as well as the water sources. We look for not contaminating the water with wastes of any kind. We really love the nature, so we protect our soils, and we don't cut the native trees.

Coffee Processing Information

We only pick the ripe and healthy beans. Cherries are depulped without using water. Fermentation process takes around 16 hours, then we wash with fresh water and drying process is done in parabolic devices.
