Las Flores is one of the most representative coffees of the new generation of Colombian specialty coffee.

Produced by Jhoan Vergara in Acevedo (Huila), this lot combines family tradition with radical innovation in fermentation. From the farm's beginnings in the 90s to winning international competitions, evolution has been constant.

The turning point came in 2019 when Jhoan won the Master of Coffee with his Pink Bourbon, positioning the farm globally.

Today, Las Flores is synonymous with precision, experimentation, and exceptional quality.

The result is a vibrant, complex, and multi-layered coffee.

Process

Processed using anaerobic washed with must, one of the most advanced methods:

Selective harvesting of ripe cherries
Controlled anaerobic fermentation
Use of must (fermented mucilage) to intensify the profile
Washing to maintain clarity
Drying and stabilization to fix complexity

This process generates an extremely dynamic and structured profile.
