What's special
about this coffee

Sara's plantation is located in the village of Buenavista; her finca itself is called “El Silencio” (= the silence). Sara does not apply aggressive pruning methods, but she is careful to keep nature as intact as possible. She says she never uses herbicides, and through her own hives, natural pollinators are thus used.

About coffee from Colombia

Coffee in Colombia was introduced by the Jesuits in 1723, but it took until 1912 to make coffee a major export product. Colombians quickly realized that marketing and “brand building” were very important, and in 1958, coffee farmer Juan Valdez was put forward as a signboard by the FNC (Federación Nacional de Cafeteros). He and his mule symbolized Colombian coffee and appeared on coffee packaging and various campaigns.

Meanwhile, the DNC has grown into an unwieldy organization that does not always put the quality of coffee first. Colombian coffees have a wide range of flavors, from heavy chocolatey coffees to very sweet, fruity coffees. Again, the different regions with their own climate types add a lot of nuances to the cup.

Producers & cooperative

Sara spent her childhood on the finca in the Colombian mountains in Filandia (Quindio Department), Central West Colombia. She is now a 3rd generation coffee grower; she inherited the farm from her father. Sara is an incredibly talented producer and thanks to her degree in “business administration,” she manages to revitalize the business side of her farm as well.
