History

Luis Montoya acquired La Arboleda in 1980, initially operating it as a commercial farm for coffee and beans. Around 2010, the family transitioned toward the specialty coffee market by planting the Chiroso variety. They have since established a partnership with roasters such as SEY Coffee to bring their production to the international market.
