Located at 1,500 meters above sea level in the Amalfi municipality of Antioquia, El Jaragual is a 150-hectare family-owned farm managed by Jorge Mira. Nestled in the heart of the Colombian Andes, this region offers the perfect environment for growing high-quality coffee, with rich soil, ample rainfall, and cool mountain air.
Jorge, a forestry engineer by trade, has infused his expertise into El Jaragual, where much of the farm is dedicated to sustainable forestry. Alongside pine plantations for timber, the farm also nurtures seven coffee varieties, including Castillo, Colombia, Pink Bourbon, and Gesha, all grown under plantain shade trees. New cultivars like Typica Mejorado and Sidra are set to join the farm’s lineup soon.
The coffee at El Jaragual is processed with care and precision, using extended fermentation, yeast inoculation, and controlled temperature processes to enhance complex aromas. This careful balance of traditional methods and modern techniques creates a cup that is both unique and full of character—showcasing the best of both innovation and heritage in Colombian coffee.
