Story

Finca Los Reyes is nestled in El Nogal, in the Loja region of Ecuador, under the stewardship of third-generation coffee farmer, José Antonio Reyes. Covering one hectare at an altitude of 1,460 meters above sea level, the farm is home to approximately 3,600 F1 Hybrid coffee trees.

José Antonio’s journey with coffee began at the age of nine, working alongside his father in the fields. This early experience instilled in him a deep passion for coffee cultivation, shaped by the values of hard work and dedication he learned from his father. Five years ago, José Antonio ventured into establishing his own coffee farm, purchasing land and making it his home. 

He continues the family tradition by involving his entire family in the coffee production process, from hand-picking to processing. While he encourages his children to pursue higher education and explore the world, he also wants them to first understand and appreciate the family’s craft.

Origin

El Nogal, Loja, Ecuador

Coffee production in El Nogal is known for its high-quality beans and meticulous cultivation methods. The area is characterised by its high-altitude growing conditions, sustainable farming practices, and a focus on quality and flavour. The region experiences a mild, subtropical climate with distinct wet and dry seasons, creating perfect conditions for coffee cultivation and a slow maturation process that enhances the coffee’s attributes. 

Farmers in El Nogal often grow hybrid varieties, such as F1 Hybrids. Known for their disease resistance and high yield, while still maintaining excellent cup quality, such hybrids have been developed by the World Coffee Research organisation with the aim to improve harvest yields in the face of climate change, disease and insect prevalence in many coffee-growing countries.
