Husband and wife duo, Jesus and Rosa Barahona, have been cultivating coffee at Finca Quindio for more than 20 years. When they first purchased the land, a portion of the farm was used to graze cattle and another portion had Caturra planted on it. Today, they cultivate Geisha, Caturra and other varieties on their 7 hectares with an eye towards specialty production.
Jesus and his brother, Jose Espinoza, began experimenting with Natural and Anaerobic processing in 2020/2021. They have already seen the quality and the price they receive improve. Jesus and Rosa recently planted these Geisha trees to continue improving their coffee quality. We couldn’t be more pleased about how their first few harvests have turned out!
Jesus and Rosa selectively handpick ripe, red cherry and pulp it. They ferment coffee and then wash it in clean water, Then, they lay parchment on marquesinas to sundry. They rake parchment frequently to ensure even drying.
