More Info From The Farmer

• How did you come into growing coffee?

  Originally I had 10 female cows and 1 bull.  They were pure-bred Holstein cows from Colombia with a production of 140 liters per 2 weeks.  Then I had an uncle whose name was Olmedo Romo and he grew coffee.  One day he told me to plant one hectare of coffee, Sidra is a good variety and I planted 3 hectares of Sidra then. I then didn’t have money for the farm because I had to invest money for 2 years so I had to sell 5 cows. When the coffee started to ripen. After 2 years the financial issues at home started to fade away because we had our coffee to sell. When the coffee was ready we did business with Café Imports.  Now I like to drink coffee before I didn’t drink it, now I drink it every day, it’s delicious.

•  What is a day in your life like?

  It’s a very fulfilling day to see the tree’s flowers.  You can appreciate the aromas at a distance and you see the bees how they pick up the honey from the flowers.

• What opportunities are you looking for from people that buy your coffee?

  We want to get a good price for the quality of the cup and traceability.  I want everyone to like my coffee.

   

• Where does your passion come from?

   The passion comes from the sweetness and the aroma of a cup of coffee.

• What makes this green crop different from others that you have harvested?

   It seems like this harvest the trees look healthier and greener.

• Are you looking to grow relationships with people a year to year to buy from you?

   Yes, I am.  I like to get to know people from different countries.

• What makes your coffee different from others?

   The variety (Sidra) and all the flavors it has and Café Imports and their customers like it.

• Shipping Info

• Due to our passion and own experience that coffee tastes better fresh, we will ship orders as we roast. We strive to ship orders as they come in as long as the coffee is fresh but this can result into our coffee being shipped a couple of days after order.  Thank you for your patience for great coffee.
