About This Coffee

Carmen Montoya, a coffee farmer for 23 years, inherited her love for coffee and farming from her parents. Starting with a small plot of an unknown coffee variety, she won the Cup of Excellence in 2014 with her coffee, locally named “chiroso.” Carmen is a pioneer in cultivating this coffee in her region and has become a community leader. She now helps fellow farmers improve their processes, aiming to establish global recognition for Urrao’s chiroso coffee due to its quality and the human talent involved
