COFFEE STORY: 
Nolberto is an expert in regenerative farming and operates his farm in a completely organic way with almost no external inputs. He uses regular compost, vermicompost, compost teas, and other innovative methods to ensure that his soil is always healthy and 90 percent of his farm has shade trees that prevent erosion, fix nitrogen in the soil, and drop leaves for natural compost. We absolutely love finding producers that take care of their land in such a way and also produce splendid coffees like this Chiroso lot brimming with concentrated brambleberries.
