Finca La Indonesia is located in La Union, 90km
from Pasto. Thanks to the efforts of farmers like
Frank, this area has been transformed from one of
illicit trade and violence, into a resilient
community dedicated to growing specialty
coffee. This farm is a Torres family inheritance
known for exceptional coffee production for over
40 years. Frank has inherited a part of this farm
and is in charge of overseeing all processing and
farming practices. He is a Q grader who has been
passionate about coffee ever since he was young.
He started his coffee career by working for
Starbucks' specialty coffee program, as well as a
green coffee buyer for exporters and importers.
This network of experience has helped him push
the boundaries of processing, making his farm
one of the most unique and innovative in
Colombia. His continuous efforts to improve
farming practices has helped him turn 90% of his
farm organic as way to preserve soil conditions
and protect his crops from plague and
devastation. Frank's coffees have continued to
exceed our expectations and we are so proud to
incorporate more of his coffees into our program
this year. His continuous efforts to advance his
post-harvest techniques is evident in the
outstanding clarity and sweetness of this year's
harvest.
