Owned by the Ramirez-Navarro family and founded by Mr. Alexis Ramirez, a farmer that dedicated his entire life to agriculture.

In 2015 as an overcoming challenge, they made the big step of building their own micro-mill, “Los Campos” with the idea of processing the coffee themselves in order to focus on the quality and traceability of their micro-lots and stop depending on the cooperative system. Working via direct trade has always been a dream for the family, reason why working with Grounds has been such a milestone.

The main variety they cultivate is Caturra-Catuai, although they are taking new steps into planting F-1 Hybrid varieties on their farm.

Many of their lots are processed using fermentation techniques (aerobic and anaerobic), reason why their coffees tend to be complex, sweet and fruity.

 

The selectively picked ripe cherries are left to rest in a oxygen free environment for 4 days after which the cherries are then put on African drying beds to ferment and dry for another 30 days.
