FINCA Quebraditas

Oporapa, Huila, Colombia

High in the foothills of the Macizo mountain range in the Andes of southwestern Colombia, near Cali, this exceptional coffee is grown. More specifically, it comes from the renowned Finca Quebraditas in the Huila region, a family-run coffee farm known for its innovation and dedication to quality. We are especially delighted to offer a coffee from this farm for the second time. This is the fresh harvest of a remarkable SL28 lot, cultivated by farm owners Edinson Argote and Angela de Rojas at elevations of up to 1,850 meters above sea level on nutrient-rich volcanic soils. The Huila region of Colombia, and the farm managed by Edinson and Angela, is renowned for its distinctive flavor profiles and for producing some of the world's finest specialty coffees. The unique terroir, the rare SL28 variety, and the meticulously refined processing method come together to create a truly extraordinary coffee that captivated us from the very first cup.

The Wizard & The Process

Edinson approaches coffee production with the precision of a biochemist, operating his own dedicated fermentation laboratory. After years of working on some of Cauca’s leading coffee farms, he returned to Huila to establish his own project. Together with Angela, whose expertise in agricultural management ensures consistent quality and full traceability, they produce coffees that are both distinctive and highly reproducible, with every lot carefully documented from harvest to export.

The processing begins with a meticulous selective harvest, where only perfectly ripe, red coffee cherries are handpicked to maximize sweetness and fruit complexity. The cherries then undergo anaerobic fermentation in airtight tanks, where oxygen is excluded. By precisely controlling fermentation time, temperature, and pressure, Edinson creates exceptionally clean and layered flavor profiles, characterized by vibrant fruit, lively sweetness, and remarkable structure. The result is a truly outstanding specialty coffee that beautifully showcases both its exceptional origin and the precision of its processing.

Sustainable cultivation and quality awareness

As with wine, the origin, cultivation and careful harvesting of coffee form the basis for a specialty coffee. We only use ripe and hand-picked 100% Arabica coffee beans for our coffees, as the laborious harvesting by hand is an essential quality criterion. Our highland coffees are natural products and are grown in shady forest gardens in an environmentally friendly way. This preserves the biodiversity of the growing region. The coffee cherries can ripen slowly at cool altitudes with nourishing and fertile soil conditions. Under these optimal climatic conditions near the equator, the coffee plants have more time to develop their characteristic and fruity aromas.

Freshly roasted by hand

All Röststätte coffees are gently roasted by hand in Berlin so that the natural aromas can fully develop without any unwanted acidity. To achieve a pronounced body and a versatile taste profile in the cup, we want to emphasize and optimally process the special features of the respective variety, farm and origin of the coffee with our roasting. The aim is therefore to exploit the full potential of the green coffee through our roasting method in order to emphasize the valuable work of the producers in the countries where the coffee is grown. These are our quality principles – from source to the final cup.
