Villa Pastora farm, located in the municipality of Palestina, Huila, was acquired in the 1980s by Mrs. Pastora Anacona, Yulieth and Gerson’s paternal grandmother. She initiated the coffee tradition on the farm by planting the first coffee trees. Since then, this passion for coffee has been passed down through the Mora Ortega family, now in its third generation of coffee growers. Álvaro Mora, Yulieth’s father, has been a central figure in maintaining and expanding this legacy. The farm serves as a tribute to Álvaro’s mother, who first planted the seeds that would grow into a thriving coffee business. Run as a family effort, Villa Pastora employs sustainable methods and prioritizes product quality.
Ripe cherries are handpicked and passed through a flotation system to remove low density and defective beans. They are then depulped and fermented for 30 hours. They are moved to the drying shed where they dry for 15 days in optimal conditions.
Yulieth and the family are a bridge between the local community and international buyers.
They buy cherry from their neighbors to carefully process, and they also sell their own farm’s coffee. Some of the coffee is washed, but their specialty is carefully processed naturals. They cup every lot to ensure quality and learn more about processing.
