About the Farm and the Coffee Los Capachos is a small, family-run farm located in Florencia, a region in the southern part of the Cauca department, near the border with Nariño. The area is known for its mineral-rich soils, which impart a distinctive character to the coffee grown here. The farm sits at an altitude between 1600 and 1680 meters above sea level, providing the ideal conditions for high-quality Arabica cultivation. The farm is managed with a strong emphasis on organic practices, utilizing native tree species to protect the soil and create shade. This approach not only preserves the ecosystem but also supports the nutrient needs of the coffee plants. Varieties grown on the farm include Pink Bourbon, Geisha, Sidra, Caturrón, and Papayo. This specific lot is produced by Eyder Martinez, a Biochemical Engineer who also works with El Paraíso farm. Eyder’s grandfather is the primary grower, and he is responsible for nurturing the Geisha, Pink Bourbon, and Sidra varieties in this farm. The commitment to quality and sustainability is evident in every stage of production.
