Family history
Coffee farming remains in the Londoño for four generations, having planted the first crop over 100 years ago by our founder Miguel Londoño. The success of the Londoño family comes from the principal; “What you plant is what you Harvest”. By following such principals as well as dedication, determination, discipline, direction, and diversity allows the Londoño family to manage such phenomenal crop, resulting in high-quality coffee being served directly to the buyer.
1920
In the year 1920, Miguel Londoño arrived in the department of Cauca, what today corresponds to the old Caldas and North of Valle del Cauca, transporting goods on the back of a mule. It was a remote, unpopulated territory and he saw how the landscape drew him great opportunities to settle down definitely; far enough to start a new life and wonderfully close to fertile soils and abundant waters. This was how the first members of the Londoño Botero family arrived.
