El Diviso
"We are the third generation to grow coffee at El Diviso. Our grandfather, José Uribe, founded the farm, and through the hard work of our family and consistent savings, we were able to build the infrastructure to process differentiated coffees—always searching for better quality, both in the cup and in our lives. After a long period of trial and error, we managed to standardize our processes, improve income, and plant new varieties that elevate quality year after year."
One of the family’s long-held dreams is to produce specialty coffees that reach discerning drinkers across the world.
Caturro Chiroso
Caturro Chiroso is a rare mutation believed to descend from Caturro varietal mixed with older Ethiopian Typica-line genetics. It’s celebrated for its bright, candy-like sweetness, lifted florals, and tropical fruit character. In Huila, this variety consistently produces some of the region’s most aromatic and clean cup profiles.
