Alcides Sanchez is a second-generation coffee producer and proud owner of Finca La Troja, which is located near Campoalegre in the Huila region of Colombia. He’s been producing coffee for ten years and works on La Troja with his wife. This 4-hectare farm produces coffee, corn, and yucca. The coffee is washed and dried on patios in the sun, with some mechanical drying if the weather demands it. Alcides attributes his coffee’s high quality to the care taken in picking coffee cherries at the peak of ripeness and the care in which his team puts into the harvest each year.
