My connection to Colombian specialty coffee

I'm Colombian and grew up among the coffee plants on my parents' farm. Since childhood, I've witnessed how high-quality Arabica coffee was sown, harvested by hand, pulped, washed, dried, and packaged. Unfortunately, due to the low coffee prices at the time, my family stopped growing coffee and switched to another line of business.

Today I live in Berlin and dedicate myself entirely to Colombian specialty coffee with my roastery . Coffee roasting has rekindled my connection to my country of origin and my childhood.

I exclusively process socially and ecologically sustainable coffee , where fair payment for coffee farmers is paramount. My goal is to keep the supply chain as short as possible – ideally with only one intermediary or through direct trade .

In Colombia, coffee is mostly grown by small-scale farmers in harmony with nature. The coffee plants grow in mixed cultivation with bananas, citrus fruits, and shade trees, which protect the soil and regulate the microclimate. Cultivation takes place on mountain slopes where machinery can hardly be used – therefore, each coffee cherry is carefully picked by hand.

Many farmers do not use pesticides or chemical fertilizers, not only out of conviction but also out of economic necessity. This results in coffees with distinctive aromas and a strong sense of origin.

I only work with coffee partners who share the same values ​​– clearly defined standards in sustainable coffee import , transparency and responsibility along the entire value chain.
