This coffee is super 'quaffable' with a mild flavour profile for all day easy drinking.

La Colina farm, which translates to "The Hill," is aptly named due to its elevated terrain and the prominent hill it sits on. The farm’s name was chosen by Antonio Medina's father, who originally owned the land.

Antonio inherited a portion of the farm from his father, who divided his land among his children. Initially, Tony grew basic crops like corn and beans. However, his true passion was always coffee farming. From a young age, he worked on various coffee farms to gain the knowledge and experience needed to realize his dream of owning a coffee farm.

In 1991, Tony planted his first coffee tree. Over the years, he steadily increased the number of trees and expanded production. After 25 years, Tony is proud to say that his dream has been fulfilled, proving that his perseverance was worthwhile.

The farm currently grows Caturra and Bourbon varieties, but Tony plans to introduce other varieties to further enhance the quality of his coffee. He also intends to use African raised beds for drying, which will help improve the overall quality of his coffee.
