Colombian ‘La Pradera’ is a washed-process coffee with flavors of marzipan, pineapple, and lemon verbena. It has a velvety and syrupy mouthfeel.

Family owned and operated, the La Pradera coffee company was created in 1971, and today four generations of the Daza Bautista family are directly involved in the production, processing, and export of specialty coffee. Their quality and success reflects the experience and value that the family places on their land and their coffee. Mr. Héctor Daza originally began transforming the family farm into a coffee paradise by planting diverse timber and fruit trees, creating a shade canopy for the different varieties of coffee they would grow. This was the beginning of a lifelong commitment to environmental stewardship. The farm now includes anaco, bucaro, guamo, oak, avocado, tangerine, banana, and many other tree varieties, providing plenty of shade to the crop. Óscar Daza, third generation, now assumes leadership of La Pradera. The focus remains on sustainable land use, organic practices, and respect for the farm and the natural world that it inhabits.
