In 1997 Doña Elsa decided to buy the farm and move to the countryside. At that time the farm had
20000 coffee plants, and she did not know much about coffee, but then she was invited to be part of a pilot project
to grow organic coffee. During those years, slowly but with strong believes, she almost doubled the number of coffee plants in the
farm.
She is making a positive difference in the region by generating work in the community.
Sweet and fruity.
Citrus fruits notes in aroma and cup.
High acidity. Medium body.
Chocolate notes stay in a delicious aftertaste.
Betania is a 10 hectares farm. Almost all the area is cultivated with coffee.
Doña Elsa knows how important is to have a balanced ecosystem in the farm so she also
grows plantains, guamo and various leguminous plants.
She is proud of her coffee being organic and they produce their own fertilizer in the farm.
The farm is located in the Tequendama region and is becoming a center of innovation in
the organic coffee production.
