Fray David Moreno

Fray David Moreno is a coffee producer based in the Pabón area of Urrao, Antioquia, where he has farmed for over 25 years. He operates a small one-hectare farm named Finca El Rosal, situated at an elevation of 1,900 meters near the Penderisco River. For the past 15 years, he has focused on cultivating the Chiroso variety, a plant he introduced to his land after observing its success among his neighbors. He manages the farm with the support of his family and three employees, utilizing premiums from coffee programs to renovate his home and processing facilities.
