Crossing
borders
After several years growing great coffees in Salamina, we decided to cross borders and begin to build a dream “ Give the opportunity to worldwide to enjoy the best experience with our exotics flavors”. However for us the coffee is not just a crop, is our culture and the opportunity to work to improve social conditions in the influence area of our projects and preserve a unique biodiversity of a unique place.
In 1999 the second generation of the family decided to plante a native forest to conserve the area and some trees in red risk list, the idea was protect it and produce an amazing coffee, Today the third generation is growing the best coffee you can imagine at same time we protect.
Did you know Colombia is the country with the biggest bird biodiversity in the world?.
Well, we are proud of it and it means responsibility in our crop ecosystems, For this reason we try to guarantee deferents levels of trees around our coffee fields and since 1910 our family begin a protection plan for the mature forest around the farm.
We protect this ecosystem as a sanctuary. We also protect native fruits around our fields the essential food for the birds.
We want to be sure, our and yours sons will have the opportunity to be in this paradise for this reason we understand the run off is our enemy and contribute to global warming, for this reason we implemented a soil protection strategy to decrease the run off rate. Currently we grow with a dense cover of the soil, trees and barriers to stop the run off and preserve the soil. We can see the results in the creeks which are down the crops, each time are clearer.
