about me.

Don Iván is known as a leader in his field, and has been recognized as one of the most important persons for the development of Betulia municipality in Antioquia, structuring many different projects including education, design of infrastructure and providing support to other coffee growers in the region.  Don Iván is proud that he has been able to share his passion of coffee with with
his family, most of whom are also involved in the entire process of coffee production.

at the time of harvest, only the ripest cherries are hand-picked. the coffee is washed, de-pulped & left to ferment for 20-22 hours. afterwards, it’s sun-dried in parabolic driers.
