Nestled in the mountains far from city lights, it sits at 5,413 ft MSL (1,650 meters). Abundant water sources, diverse wildlife, and the perfect balance of sunshine and fog create ideal conditions for coffee plants to produce delicious specialty beans.
This green and abundant land that gives so much life has been Ignacio’s entire life. He has known these mountains and valleys since he was born, and he has been loving and learning how to grow coffee since he was just a toddler. This craft that he excels at was passed on to him by his father; it is one that he is also passing down to his son Cristian, who is now a master on his own, and who will soon be passing it down to his kids as well.
Using artisanal methods and his many years of expertise, Ignacio knows how to grow specialty coffee and the importance of the environment around them.
With dedication and care, Ignacio produces plump flavorful beans that make delicious coffee, but he doesn’t stop there. He constantly learns and further highlights his premium beans through different processing methods, like honey and natural.
This beautiful garden, the fruits, and the high-quality coffee are a reflection of the care and dedication that Ignacio and his wife, Marina, put into everything they do. To know Ignacio and his wife is to know warmth and kindness.
