Arturo Arango is a young coffee farmer who has been producing coffees since 2015. He bought El Paraiso a 25 hectares farm located at 1300m. in Barcelona, Quindío. When he bought the farm, most of the coffee trees were more than 25 years old so he started to renew every tree and planted Costa Rica and Java varieties. Arturo studied Business Administration and had the opportunity to do his master’s degree in agroindustries in Argentina. During his time away from Colombia, Arturo was captivated by the Specialty Coffee scene.
Upon his return to Colombia, he decided to get involved in coffee as he saw an amazing opportunity to be a part of this movement. His focus was on applying the correct agricultural practices on his farm to produce the highest quality coffees he could. The first few years on his farm were spent renewing the trees and improving the practices. After three years, the new trees started bearing fruit and the results were excellent, encouraging Arturo to continue along his path of revitalizing the farm.
