The La Noria, El Dorado and Eliza specialty coffee farms are managed by the CVM family that comes from generations of coffee growers in the province of Ibague Colombia. Together with the Ecuadorians who know the land we grow high elevation award winning arabica coffee in the Ecuadorian Andes.
What makes our coffee so good is:
- Ecuador gets 12 hours of sunshine every day all year.
- Our farms are in the province of Loja which has a dry season that allows the coffee berries to ripen to a desired sweetness.
- Good soil, irrigation and fertilizer.
- The right amount of shade trees per coffee variety and elevation of coffee plants.
- The correct wet and dry processing per variety of coffee.
