The Gomez family has cultivated a tradition of excellence in coffee farming,
with Juan Dario Gomez leading the charge. Inheriting the farm from his father,
Juan's dedication to innovation and quality has defined their legacy. Alongside
his relatives who share his passion, Juan has set a standard for distinctive coffees,
standing out in the market with their commitment to unique flavor profiles.
At the heart of their operation is a dedication to regenerative farming practices.
With meticulous care, they provide shade and utilize organic fertilizers,
prioritizing both land preservation and coffee quality. Situated at an elevation of
1,820 meters within a mountainous landscape, their 8-hectare plantation
epitomizes their attention to detail.
The coffee harvesting process is a labor of love, with only ripe red berries
meticulously selected by hand. Unripe berries undergo a unique fermentation
process, while ripe ones are pulped and carefully washed for 24 hours. The
beans are then meticulously dried for 20 to 30 days, ensuring even drying and
optimal flavor development.
The result is a cup with notes of tomato, sugar, key lime, chocolate, cherry,
plum, apricot, and maple — a testament to the Gomez family's unwavering
commitment to quality and innovation.
