Finca La Maria

Finca La Maria is cultivated and processed by Maria and Orlando Ospina, who, along with their dedicated team, are passionate about what they do. The Ospinas are not only growing coffee but also fostering a community. This coffee is a unique blend of favorable weather, hard work, and love. Orlando, an experienced agronomist, and Maria, an entrepreneurial spirit, rented a 3.5-hectare plot to pursue their dream of growing Natural Geisha coffee.

Their passion project began six years ago, taking a leap into cultivating Natural Geisha. Since establishing their farm in 2015, their land has thrived, now boasting 5,000 coffee shrubs. The unique microclimate, with constant rainfall, allows Maria and her team to meticulously harvest twice a month throughout the year. Given their achievements so far, we can expect much more from the Ospinas in the coming years.

We are roasting with the 7kg Loring roaster in the shop which provides an efficiency and control of the quality, as the automated controls allow us to concentrate on creating the best coffee by releasing green beans from the hopper and precisely controlling the burner.
