    Product Story:

    Sebastian Ramirez, a native of Quindio, Colombia—a region renowned for its rich coffee culture—is a fourth-generation coffee grower. Six years ago, Sebastian transitioned from studying law to taking over his father’s farm, El Placer, located in the Buenos Aires de Calarcá village. The farm, spanning 14 hectares and situated at an altitude of 1,650-2,000 meters above sea level, is shaded by native trees, fostering ideal coffee-growing conditions.


    Despite initial challenges, including managing a large workforce and facing financial difficulties, Sebastian’s curiosity and dedication to specialty coffee led him to transform the farm’s operations. Inspired by a coffee cupping session in Armenia, he delved into the world of specialty coffee, combining traditional practices with innovative techniques.


    Sebastian’s journey from law student to celebrated coffee producer is marked by perseverance and a deep passion for coffee. He adapted the farm by renting part of the land and cultivating special coffee varieties, alongside bananas and plantains. Additionally, he converted a 350-year-old house into a hostel, offering tourists a unique experience from seed to cup.


    Today, Sebastian Ramirez is recognized as one of Colombia’s prominent specialty coffee producers, continually striving to produce exceptional coffee and uphold the legacy of El Placer farm.
