Valladarez

This coffee is produced in the heart of the Dipilto mountains, near the border with Honduras. It is cultivated on sandy soil at an altitude of between 1,200 and 1,700 metres. Most coffee bushes are grown under shade (70% with various species), and the soil and plants are fertilised using environmentally-friendly techniques. 

Olman Valladarez is a second-generation coffee producer, continuing the work begun by his father. When he took over the family business in 2002, quality was still a long way off. It wasn’t until 2006 that Olman Valladarez took part in the Cup of Excellence for the first time, and began to work on its coffee processes to improve production quality.

We’ve been working with Olman Valladarez for 10 years now. As a producer, his job is “to develop an eco-friendly business model, to reduce the use of chemical inputs but also to improve the forest and water around us”. While he is proud to have taken over the family business and turned it into a benchmark for specialty coffee, he is now keen to have a positive impact on biodiversity.

Olman Valladarez inherited the Buenos Aires farm, as well as the other La Laguna and El Suyatal farms from his father. Until Olman’s father decided to build a washing and drying station, the Cafetalera Buenos Aires, all the family’s production was sold as cherries. Now, the family controls everything, from production to the export of its 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.
