Located in the historic town of San Agustín in Huila, Colombia, La Cereza Farm and Research Center sits at approximately 1,800 meters above sea level in one of the country’s most respected coffee-growing regions.
San Agustín is globally recognized not only for its UNESCO World Heritage archaeological significance, but also for producing some of Colombia’s most expressive specialty coffees. At the heart of La Cereza is Andrés Felipe Ospina—a biologist, researcher, and educator whose work connects science, sustainability, and coffee production.
Through global research and educational programs, La Cereza has evolved beyond a traditional coffee farm into a center for innovation and knowledge, focused on understanding coffee at a deeper microbial and fermentation-driven level while supporting farmers through education and sustainable practices.
La Cereza operates as both a producing farm and an active research facility, exploring how processing methods influence flavor development through the use of native microorganisms and controlled fermentation techniques.
With around 15 coffee varieties and extensive fermentation and drying infrastructure, the team conducts hundreds of controlled processing experiments every year. The focus is not only on quality, but on understanding and replicating flavor through science—using local microbial ecosystems to enhance the coffee’s natural character.
This innovative approach has led to remarkable recognition, including multiple top placements in Colombia’s Cup of Excellence competitions, where several finalist coffees were processed at La Cereza.
Beyond awards, the project carries a broader mission: to elevate specialty coffee through education, empower producers with better tools and knowledge, and preserve the environmental balance that makes these coffees possible.
The result is a coffee that reflects both origin and precision—where terroir, innovation, and research come together in the cup.
