Description: Located in La Piedrona Village, El Puente is an 83 hectare farm that stands out from others of its region thanks to the meticulous care that is put into each step of the coffees produced here.
Ever since its establishment, the family-owned farm has kept faithful to the task of taking care of the soil, finding the best micro-climates, studying better varieties and processes that help them to obtain only the best characteristics in the cup. In regards to sustainability, the farm has been providing permanent jobs with salaries above the average to the families in the community, educating them about relative environmental topics to improve and preserve their natural resources, planting 4,000 trees such as cypress, pine, grevilleas and other timber trees every year, and supporting the local school by donating food, books, supplies and structural improvements.
At Finca El Puente, they are always eager to welcome everyone who visits the farm and milling facilities to share their knowledge and experiences. We love the fruity characteristics in the cup, it’s very well balanced with ripe fruit acidity and sweetness.
