Villa Betulia

This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.

The story

Villa Betulia is a family-run estate in Acevedo, Huila, founded by the father of current producer Luis Anibal Calderon. Luis began his journey as a 12-year-old farm worker and eventually took over a small plot at age 15, which he expanded into the current 40-hectare farm. The estate is now managed by Luis alongside his son, Yeisson, and Aley Calderón, representing the continuation of the family legacy.

Challenges

Available roaster and supply-chain sources document Villa Betulia’s rare cultivars and varied processing methods, but they do not publish a current producer-stated list of operating challenges.

Innovations

The farm is recognized for its role as a curator of rare coffee varieties, including mutations and hybrids, and for its use of advanced processing techniques such as extended anaerobic fermentation and the use of grainpro bags during fermentation.

Published coffees linked to this farm

For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.

Research sources & verification

These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
