Introducing German Bahamón, a visionary coffee producer from El Principado. With 30 years of ownership and a comeback to coffee after a broca attack, his resilience shines. German's farm thrives at 1650 meters above sea level, nurturing 120,000 trees of Castillo and Borbón Rosado varieties. Beyond coffee, his diversified farm produces bananas and hosts dairy cattle.
