Driven by passion and resilience, they transformed their family farm into Las Lajas Micromill, crafting exceptional, fruit-forward coffees with a meticulous, slow-drying method that enhances depth and complexity.
This Caturra & Catuai variety bursts with rich, wine-like body and vibrant notes of ripe berries, dried fruit, and cocoa, offering a bold and unforgettable cup. Each sip is a tribute to generations of dedication, sustainability, and the art of specialty coffee.
