About this Specialty Coffee

In the heart of Pichindé municipality of Cali, Colombia, lies a treasure trove of coffee cultivation, Inmaculada Coffee Farms. Founded in 2010 by Juan Pablo Jaramillo and his family, this farm is not just a testament to exceptional coffee growing but a living embodiment of dedication to sustainability and ethical practices. Every bean, from the aromatic Geisha to the distinctive Sudan Rumé, carries a legacy of organic cultivation and fair trade practices.

The farm's unwavering commitment resonates in their 'Fellows' Farms' initiative, designed to uplift and enhance the quality of life of regional coffee farmers. Their meritorious endeavors haven't gone unnoticed; with accolades like the Cup of Excellence awarded in both 2017 and 2021, Inmaculada Coffee Farms' produce graces select coffeehouses and retailers, globally symbolizing excellence and authenticity.

The Espresso Lab's relationship with Inmaculada Coffee Farms is one of reverence, exploration, and mutual respect. Our founder, a seasoned coffee enthusiast, has traversed global terrains in pursuit of the perfect brew. Yet, his encounter with Inmaculada's Laurina and Eugenioides was transformative, granting The Espresso Lab the exclusive privilege to introduce these rare beans to the Middle East. This special bond was further cemented through the warm embrace of Julián Vicente Holguín Ramos, the visionary behind Inmaculada, who passionately transformed ancestral lands into pockets of coffee excellence. As fervent supporters, The Espresso Lab champions Inmaculada's innovative initiatives and shares their narrative of sustainable growth, especially through the groundbreaking 'Fellow' project.

However, the magnetism of Inmaculada's coffees lies not just in its taste but its origin. Ibrahim Al Mallouhi's admiration for their Laurina reveals a tale of meticulous cultivation. The varietal's flavor complexity and brilliant acidity are a direct consequence of the unique terroir and the relentless care these sensitive beans demand. Inmaculada's distinct edge emerges from their deep-seated commitment to nature.

Eschewing chemicals, their approach to farming, albeit intricate and expensive, is a harmonious dance with nature, a principle that aligns seamlessly with The Espresso Lab's stringent organic standards. In the world of coffee, Inmaculada Coffee Farms and The Espresso Lab share a symbiotic relationship, rooted in quality, sustainability, and a shared vision of excellence.
