REGION: Acevedo

Lisandro Cardenas is a Colombian coffee producer in the coffee town of Acevedo. He and his family have been growing coffee for three generations. His farm is unique in that he primarily grows Pink Bourbon cherries, but also has a small pot of Gesha plants as well. We also buy coffee from his partner, Natalia Ramirez, and his sister Silvia. The Cardenas family have been purveyors of specialty coffee in Huila, Colombia for many years.

Lisandro also helped create the Genesis Exporting group. In a country divided by the working class and the upper class, it's significant for a group of farmers and coffee professionals to create their own exporting group. We're proud of what they've created and aim to support them by buying their coffee.

The region of Huila in southwestern Colombia is near the crest of the Andes Mountains. Coffee cherries are handpicked, wash processed and sundried by quality focused farmers. Big body is backed up by orange citrus, coconut, and milk chocolate.
Among the most recognized origins, Colombia holds a special place in the hearts of coffee people all over the world. Through relationships cultivated by Cafe Imports with exporting and farmer partners, we have been fortunate enough to interact with and build important connections to hardworking and quality focused producers.
