Producer Info
Sebastian Ramirez, a native of Quindio, a department known for its great coffee culture, is part of the fourth generation of family coffee growers. Six years ago, for those turns that life takes, Sebastian took the reins of the house. He got to the seventh semester of law when he had to dedicate himself to his father's farm. The El Placer farm is located in the Buenos Aires de Calarcá village. "We had forty blocks on the farm, a lot of coffee and more than seventy workers. It was not enough for us, it was not enough, in Colombia it is very difficult to live from coffee"... I heard something about special coffee in Armenia and one day I arrived at Alma Café, there I met an instructor from SENA who talked about cupping and that aroused my curiosity on the subject and that's how I got to know this world. “I learned, I was educated and through love and perseverance we are turning the screw. But it was tight! It can be said that Sebastian has dedicated his life to coffee and he is proud to admit it…. Currently, Sebastián has established himself as one of the most famous specialty coffee producers in Colombia, however his motivation is to continue producing excellent coffee where he continues to leave the name of the El Placer farm high.
