A family farm.

La Molienda is a farm where production remains closely managed by the Rivera family, with harvesting, processing and drying all carried out on site.

This coffee is produced from Variedad Colombia, a cultivar that has been central to Colombian coffee production for decades. Grown in the high elevations of Nariño, it continues to show the quality potential that has made it such an important part of the country’s coffee landscape.

In the cup, the result is clean and balanced, with notes of apricot and brown sugar.

The Producer

La Molienda is the work of Benjamin Rivera and his wife, Luz Marina Diaz Rivera, who established the farm in La Pradera, Nariño. Neither came from a coffee-growing family, but together they built the farm through years of dedication.

Coffee has remained at the centre of family life, with steady investment allowing the farm to develop over time while maintaining a focus on quality.

Today, all seven of their children are involved in the farm, continuing the work Benjamin and Luz Marina began and helping shape its future.

  • Production Data

    Produced by Benjamin Jilberto Rivera
    Region - Nariño
    Grown at 1800 masl
    Varietal - Variedad Colombia
    Harvest - December 2025
    Process - Washed

  • Washed

    Ripe cherries are washed and then pulped to remove the majority of skin and fruit from the bean before its fermented.

    Fermentation is brief and helps to remove any remaining material from the pulping process as well as adding complexity to the coffee.

    The coffee is then washed and sun-dried, mechanically dried, or a combination of the two until the desired moisture level is reached.
