ABOUT THE COFFEE

El Placer Farm, nestled in the heart of Quindío in Colombia, embodies excellence in specialty coffee. This region, recognized as one of the most emblematic for coffee cultivation, benefits from an ideal environment: an optimal altitude, rich volcanic soils and a balanced climate with well-distributed rainfall.

At the helm of this farm is Sebastián Ramírez, a visionary producer who has made El Placer a symbol of quality and sustainability. Sebastián is firmly committed to environmentally friendly farming practices, combining local traditions with modern innovations. Under his leadership, El Placer has developed remarkable coffees, characterized by an exceptional aromatic complexity, combining fruity, floral notes and bright acidity.

Among the varieties grown at El Placer, Caturra occupies a special place. Derived from a natural mutation of Bourbon discovered in Brazil in the 1930s, it is particularly appreciated for its qualities in the cup and its adaptability. Thanks to the expertise and passion of Sebastián Ramírez, El Placer coffees continue to seduce amateurs and experts around the world.
