Colombia Coffee Co.

What Colombia Coffee Co. does

Colombia Coffee Co. is a privately held, family-operated specialty coffee company founded in 2018 to introduce single farm Colombian coffee to the US market, with operations commencing in the New York City Metro Area. The company owns and operates Finca Don Manolo, a coffee farm located in Dosquebradas, Risaralda, in Colombia's Coffee Triangle, growing 100% Arabica Castillo beans at 1,500-1,600 meters above sea level using traditional washed processing with hand-picking and sun-drying. The product portfolio comprises two single farm single origin offerings — Finca Don Manolo and La Sierra Farm — both characterized by flavor notes of chocolate, caramel, and red berries.

The company sells primarily direct-to-consumer through its e-commerce storefront (cafetalescoffeeco.com), with secondary distribution through grocery stores in the NYC Metro Area. Marketing emphasizes Colombian coffee heritage dating to early 17th-century Spanish colonization, fair and dignified wages for local farming families, biodiversity protection (over 78 bird species recorded on the farm property), and a commitment to protecting Colombia's Coffee Cultural Landscape. The US headquarters is located in Tenafly, New Jersey.

The business model is a one-time product sale model (DTC packaged coffee) with no subscription, licensing, or recurring revenue components disclosed. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company also offers agritourism experiences including coffee tours at the farm near Pereira. No institutional funding, no disclosed revenue, no named management team, and no certifications or regulatory approvals are evidenced in the available data; the operation appears to be a small, founder-driven micro-enterprise rather than a scaled commercial entity.
