Spring is found in Colombia, in the upper part of the Bruselas district, in the municipality of Pitalito, at 1,650 meters above sea level. Its microclimate —sunny days and cold nights— favors a slow ripening of the fruit and the development of high-altitude coffees.
It is a second-generation coffee farm, with 25 hectares, 17 of which are dedicated to coffee and 8 are preserved as a nature reserve. Production is distributed among approximately 25,000 trees of varieties such as Castillo, Caturra, Cenicafé, and Rosé Bourbon.
The property was used for cattle ranching until 1995, when the transition to coffee cultivation began, initially focusing on traditional varieties like Caturra and Castillo. From 2005 onward, the focus shifted to higher-quality coffees, with varietal changes and the consolidation of the Bourbon Rosado variety. Today, La Primavera employs both washed and natural processing methods within a system designed to diversify coffee profiles.
Rodrigo Molina and Inés Marina Galíndez
Rodrigo and Inés Marina are a married couple who are coffee farmers with a long history in the sector. They started with traditional methods and over time focused entirely on specialty coffee.
Today, they manage the entire farm—including maintenance and harvesting—with the support of local workers. Between them, they cultivate around 20 hectares of coffee, where they have incorporated various controlled fermentation processes, refined through trial and error.
