Linda Vista is sourced from two neighbouring farms in the Las Manos community of Dipilto. Family-run for more than seventy years.

Across eighteen hectares of coffee the producer cultivates Caturra, Catuai, Parainema and Catimor beneath a mixed canopy of Inga, native hardwoods, erythrina, banana plants and fruit trees, keeping thirty to fifty per cent shade throughout the plots and protecting fifteen hectares of untouched forest on Santa Isabel.

Two soil fertiliser applications and three foliar feeds are scheduled each year, combining low-impact synthetic inputs with on-farm compost and coffee-pulp biofertiliser, while formative pruning and shade regulation sustain plant health.

Harvested cherries are hand-selected, floated and rested for eighteen hours before processing. At Santa Isabel a traditional washed protocol follows: depulping, fermentation in tiled tanks for twenty-four to thirty-six hours, thorough washing and transfer to the dry mill.

Mirjam lacks its own wet mill, so cherries travel to Finca Bethania—another family property—where washed, honey, natural and anaerobic natural preparations are carried out under the same strict sorting, bag or barrel fermentation and quality-control routines. All wet-processed parchment then moves to the Cafetos de Segovia dry mill for conditioned storage, hulling, commercial grading and export. Both wet mills minimise water use and channel effluent to lined oxidation ponds, safeguarding local streams
