Luis Valladarez began his business by buying this small farm. Initially all his production was sold in cherries, but a few years ago he decided to build his own processing station (Cafetalera Buenos Aires) in order to have a better control of the production chain.

In 2004 his second son – Olman- joined him in the farm management: he was a former lawyer, but has always been a coffee farmer at heart. He wanted to become an expert in coffee processing and mono-varietal growing and he led the farm to produce caturra, maracaturra and villa sarchi varieties in honey, natural and fully washed processes. Thanks to his know-how, he has improved the quality of the Buenos Aires coffees and started to participate in the Cup of Excellence.

Unexpectedly for such a specialty coffee, its cherries are harvested in the lowest part of the estate and naturally processed.

The result is a really unique coffee with a very particular taste that we loved ever since we tried it.
