Established by Luis Emilio Valladárez over 50 years ago, this coffee farm spans 75 hectares, with varieties like Maracaturra, Maragogipe, Java, Villa Sarchi, and Caturra cultivated between altitudes of 1200 to 1450 masl.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Under the management of Luis's son, Olman Valladárez, the farm has flourished, earning accolades in competitions like the Cup of Excellence. Most recently, Finca Buenos Aires secured second place with a natural processed Maracaturra 2023 Cup of Excellence, and a sister farm, Los Alpes, took first place with a washed Geisha.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Beyond coffee, the Valladárez family's commitment extends to community well-being, sponsoring public health campaigns and organising celebratory events. The philosophy at Finca Buenos Aires revolves around creating a sustainable and familial atmosphere, where everyone involved, from collaborators to consumers, enjoys the fruits of their labour. </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Maracaturra is a rare variety resulting from a cross between Maragogipe and Caturra, from which is gets its large bean size and compact size respectively. This washed Maracaturra is a great expression of the variety and terroir on Finca Buenos Aires with brown sugar, spice, and citrus notes.</span><span data-ccp-props='{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}'> </span></p>
