After moving through various parts of Colombia, they eventually settled in Huila, where they dedicated themselves to coffee farming with a clear goal: to break into the specialty market. What began as just a few hectares has since grown into a thriving 50-hectare farm at over 1,700 meters above sea level, planted with Panamanian Geisha, Caturra, and Bourbon Aji varieties. The coffee farm is located in a village called Monte Bonito, which is situated in Pitalito, southern Huila, near the heart of the Macizo Colombiano. At this point, the three maior Colombian mountain ranges meet and it is an area famous for coffee production. This location is near the source of the Magdalena River, which creates a multitude of microclimates throughout the region.
