Finca Noroña
Jairo’s journey into coffee farming began in his youth, inheriting a passion for agriculture from his family. Over the years, he honed his skills and knowledge, focusing on sustainable and innovative farming practices. His commitment to quality is evident in every aspect of his work, from the careful selection of coffee varietals to the precise methods of cultivation and processing.
Finca Noreña stands out for a key factor: its unique terroir. The farm is situated at 1,750 MASL, across from the Nevado del Tolima, a snow capped active volcano responsible for the area’s diverse mix of microclimates and rich volcanic soil. This is a key advantage to the exceptional and complex coffee profiles that Jairo is able to present.
Jairo employs a range of advanced techniques to ensure the highest quality beans. He practices shade-grown coffee farming, which not only enhances the flavor but also supports biodiversity. His dedication to regenerative farming methods reduces the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, supporting his quest for producing coffee that is both environmentally sensible and of superior quality.
The coffee from Finca Noreña is often described as having a rich and balanced flavor, with notes of intense chocolate, caramel and fruit, underpinned by a juicy acidity and smooth body. This distinct profile is a testament to Jairo’s expertise and his commitment to producing coffee that highlights the rich soil microbiology.
In summary, Jairo Humberto Lopez is not just a coffee farmer; he is a master craftsman whose dedication to quality has made Finca Noreña a symbol of excellence in the specialty coffee scene. We are delighted to have met him and started a sustainable partnership to bring you his wonderful coffees.
Our coffee is treated with care
Meticulous Quality
We hope to provide our customers with the best and therefore pay close attention to all factors affecting the quality of our coffee. These include cultivar, growing altitude, climate, soil chemistry, harvesting and processing conditions, drying method, storage conditions, transportation, roasting conditions, grind size, brewing water and brewing recipes.
Highly Curated
Each one of our coffees is carefully selected by our roasting team. Before we buy in bulk, we go through many samples from different specialty coffee estates. Often times we are working with the most renowned coffee producers in the world.
Small Batch Roasting
All our coffee is roasted in our Roastery in Westbahnstraße 13, in Vienna. We roast small batches (10kg max) because we have better control over all the parameters that impact the flavour profile and can therefore better guarantee consistency.
Ethically Sourced
We ensure traceability for all our coffees. Our house Espresso from Nicaragua is directly traded without any middle-men and when we go through a wholesaler, complete transparency is a must. We want to provide our customers with the ability to know where their coffee comes from down to the name of each farmer.
