About farm

Manuel comes from a big family of coffee growers and coffee lovers. The whole family has been dedicated to coffee cultivation for three generations now and successfully continues to develop and improve their coffee quality year after year.

When Manuel was only 23 years old his grandfather gave him a property situated at 1200 masl. Manuel worked hard for the next 8 years but due to low coffee prices and low production yields he decided to obtain a job in the city to resolve his economical issues.

In 2010 he get an opportunity to purchase a 10 hectare piece of land in the El Ocotillo village in Santa Barbara region which is very well known for producing high quality coffee.

In 2017 Manuel participated in the Late Harvest National Competition and placed 2nd. After he won he said that “The coffee from my farm has surprised me a lot, has exceeded my quality expectations. Winning 2nd place encourages me a lot to continue working hard to maintain and improve the quality of my coffee for the buyers".
