Las Fincas del Suspiro - Artemio Zapata Tejada This finca has been of our family for decades. We have been working on quality for years and my family is involved in the whole process.
Our beneficio is located at our own house. We use African beds for drying coffee and they are placed on the roof of our house.
I am very excited about our quality. I didnt imagine that my coffee was going to be selected for the auction. I feel very proud and I hope for good prices for my coffees.
