Producer and Region

This coffee comes from La Villa farm in Acevedo, Huila, Colombia, managed by Eduard Gaviria. The 5 hectare farm sits at 1670 masl and is planted with around 19,000 coffee trees, alongside plantain as a companion crop.

Originally part of his family’s land, Eduar expanded his share to build La Villa into a focused specialty coffee farm. With ideal altitude, climate, and soil conditions, he has shifted fully toward quality-driven production.

Cultivation and Processing

Drying is carried out carefully to preserve clarity and balance, resulting in a clean yet expressive profile with pronounced fermentation character.

Variety

Cup Profile

Expect a sweet and funky cup with red fruits and soft tropical fruitiness. It's silky and smooth with a subtle winey character from the processing.
