Carlos Pola is a 5th generation producer we got to meet this year during his trip to
Barcelona. Carlos worked in the textile industry for 20 years before coming fully dedicated to coffee in 2012.
Today, he manages Finca Las Brisas and 2 other farms from his family, investing in technology and sustainability.

Once the cherries are picked, they are first floated to remove the unripe ones. They are then dried for two days to remove the excess of water, before being dried on raised african beds, covered everyday after 12pm.
