Los Nogales

Around 80 years ago, Ricardo Hernández and Concepción Castillo settled in Pitalito, Nariño, with a dream of leaving a mark in coffee history. Their son, Ricaurte Hernández, led the family to success, winning Colombia’s first “Cup of Excellence” in 2005. After Ricaurte's tragic death in 2013, his youngest son, Oscar Fernando, took over the farm, transforming Los Nogales into a modern coffee production hub known for its high-quality beans, innovative practices, and commitment to sustainability.

Wush Wush

Wush Wush is a unique and diverse coffee varietal celebrated for its sweetness and a delicate array of floral and fruity flavors. Its beans are typically small and dense, requiring precise roasting to enhance their natural sweetness. Originating from the fertile highlands of Wushwush in Southwest Ethiopia, this heirloom varietal shares similarities with Gesha in both origin and adaptability.Though Wush Wush thrives in the high-altitude regions of Colombia, it is known for its low yield and variable tree morphology, making mature tree selection crucial for consistent crops. Its ability to adapt to different climates adds to its distinctiveness, offering a truly special coffee experience.

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.
