Nestled on the verdant slopes of Acevedo, at the foothills of Colombia’s Eastern Cordillera, lies the Las Brisas farm—home to Yohn Wilmer Cuéllar and his wife, Nicol Dayana. Together, they continue a family legacy deeply rooted in coffee cultivation. As a second-generation producer, Yohn grew up among the coffee trees planted by his parents decades ago.
Driven by a strong commitment to preserving and elevating this heritage, Yohn has dedicated recent years to studying advanced agricultural practices, establishing a consistent and rigorously quality-controlled production process.
Las Brisas exemplifies the power of family collaboration and precision. Each member contributes with expertise: Yohn’s parents support harvesting and labor management, his wife’s siblings oversee fermentation and drying, while Yohn is responsible for transparency, quality evaluation, and commercial stewardship.

Extra info

What is single origins coffee.

Single-origin coffee is coffee grown within a single known geographical origin.  Sometimes this is a single farm, or a specific collection of beans from a single country. The name of the coffee is then usually the place it was grown to whatever degree available. Single origin coffees have uniformity in terms of taste and aromas. Often the farm is part of a community program, providing better labor conditions and health care services.
