Don Alejandro Torres — Antioquia

Region: Jardín, Antioquia Specialty: Shade-grown arabica & selective hand-picking Short Story: Alejandro has farmed coffee for more than 35 years on the same mountainside his grandfather cultivated. Known as El Maestro del Café, he teaches younger farmers how to identify perfect ripeness by touch alone. His passion is preserving traditional Colombian coffee processes. Why the Project Matters: “For the first time, we feel seen. People who enjoy our coffee can now learn who we are — and that changes everything.”
