Farm Las Flores began in 1990, it was founded by Edilberto Vergara and Nubia Ayure. Originally from the department of Cundinamarca, they were the children of coffee growers who inherited a passion for the countryside and especially for coffee. Now run by their children: Carlos and Diego are in charge of processing and management, including fermentation times, types of processes and drying; Jhoan is in charge of analysing the results of the experiments and defining which process is best according to the varietal and quality. Finca Las Flores's mission is to contribute to the environment through excellent agricultural practices. They would like the farm to be a gateway to shared knowledge to bring about a sustainable coffee industry. The family is very keen on experimentation and exploring varietals. Jhoan Vergara won the Master of Coffee Award in 2019 in the coffee grower/roaster section. 

For this coffee, the ripest cherries are hand-picked and left to oxidate for 36 hours in open bags. The cherry is floated, then pulped and fermented anaerobically for 60 hours. After this, the cherries are washed in 40º water before being cooled with cold water to stop the fermentation. The cherry is then laid to dry in Casa Elba for 12-15 days, being moved 3-4 times daily to ensure even drying.
