Legendary Coffee

100% NATURAL COLOMBIAN COFFEE

Tunungua Farms Colombian Coffee is grown from 100% natural seeds produced by Cenicafe. Cenicafe is the scientific branch of the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation (FNC), the Cafe de Colombia® alliance, and the Juan Valdez® brands. Since 1938, Cenicafe has performed intensive research to produce the world’s best-tasting and heartiest coffee. For over 80 years they have carefully selected only the finest, healthiest, most productive Arabica coffee for propagation. This work has developed the Castillo and Cenicafe varieties that are grown at Tunungua Farms.

Over 80 years of research making sure that every cup the world enjoys is perfect.

All Natural NON-GMO Coffee

PERFECTION IN EVERY CUP

Tunungua Farms Colombian Coffee is grown by selecting only the heartiest coffee seedlings to be transplanted from our greenhouses to the field. Only about 50% meet our high standards. Any coffee plants that grow below expectations on our plantations get replaced with new seedlings. We do this to ensure our crops’ overall health and sustainability without using unnecessary chemical pesticides and fertilizers.

Producing 250,000 new seedlings a year

Growing healthier coffee means more sustainable yields

Tunungua Farms Colombian Coffee is grown on high Andean Mountain slopes. The volcanic soil, annual rainfall, natural flora, fauna, and high altitudes of 1200–1,800 meters provide the perfect environment for growing Arabica coffee. Here all of nature works together to grow the world’s favorite coffee.
