Brothers Rigoberto and Luis Eduardo Herrera run the project, which is known for pioneering Geisha (also spelled Gesha) in Colombia after winning Best Coffee of Panama in 2008. The farm sits at 1,525 to 1,569 masl in Trujillo, across 3.65 hectares. Temperatures run between 15 and 21°C, with 2,200 mm of annual rainfall and humidity of 85 to 90%.

Once dry, they are held in a climate-controlled warehouse at 18 to 19°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy we like it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA lot of this calibre, used in brewing competitions rarely reach a roaster our size, and we are fortunate to have this one.
