About this Coffee

From Colombia’s famed Huila region comes La Esperanza, a washed espresso brimming with notes of pear, toffee and caramel. Grown high in fertile volcanic soil, it’s complex, velvety, well-balanced, and everything we love about Colombian coffee, and then some.


It’s all thanks to the work of Geiner Montano, one of five brothers continuing a family coffee legacy. His 4.3-hectare farm, La Esperanza, is mostly planted with Castillo and Colombia varieties, with the rest undergoing reforestation after years of cattle grazing. It’s an investment not just in the land, but in the future his family is building there.


Geiner takes his processing seriously, and it shows. A mix of sun and mechanical drying (about five days) gives him consistency across every harvest. The result? A coffee that’s equal parts tradition, innovation, and care in every cup.
