Los Olivos
Farm 's Los Olivos estate has been in the family for more than 30 years. His father, originally from Boyacá, came to Tolima as a coffee merchant and, over time, acquired two estates, including Los Olivos. The family specializes in coffee and cattle ranching, although their medium- and long-term goal is to focus exclusively on coffee cultivation.
When the Farm was acquired, it had just 2,000 trees; today, it has more than 35,000, including varieties such as Bourbon Rosado, Castillo, and Geisha. Although the family does not live at the Farm, the harvesters live, eat, and work there.
Gilber, an agroindustrial engineer, has led an environmental conservation project in the area aimed at protecting and restoring the natural environment. His efforts include reforestation and the protection of migratory bees, as well as raising awareness among his neighbors and acquaintances about the importance of protecting the environment.
Process:
The ripest cherries are harvested, followed by two sorting steps: manual sorting and density sorting. The cherries are then left on the tree for 12 hours, pulped, and undergo controlled fermentation in bags and vats for 36 hours. Afterward, the coffee is dried in a shed for approximately a week and a half, depending on the weather.
Drying Process:
Sun and Patio
Plans for the Future:
They want coffee production to be their main source of income, to improve production and processing practices, to upgrade the infrastructure at Farm , and to raise awareness of their coffees.
