Yessica Parra - Colombia

Highlights

“Yessica is a fourth-generation producer from Pitalito. After studying at SENA, Colombia's state-sponsored vocational training school, she chose to continue her family's tradition while moving decisively toward specialty coffee. Together with her brother Diego she founded Diwan Coffee, and three years ago they partnered with two friends to buy their first farm, El Mirador - this harvest marks its very first export.”
