ABOUT BRAYA ALVEAR
Brayan Alvear is a young, second‑generation coffee farmer from San Adolfo, Acevedo, Huila. This is one of Colombia’s most celebrated micro‑regions. Brayan grew up learning the craft by following his father around the farm after school. Deeply rooted in the Las Palmas community, he now leads innovative processing projects at Finca Las Palmas, where he cultivates Castillo, Caturra, and Colombia varieties at 1,400–1,600 MASL. His coffees are known for their vibrant, fruit‑forward profiles, often shaped by anaerobic fermentations and experimental co‑ferments such as strawberry. Between 2024 and 2025, Brayan helped coordinate a collective effort involving more than 60 local growers, including his family, to secure better prices for coffee cherries, while also collaborating with Forest and the Ancla processing station to push fermentation techniques even further.
His standout offerings—like the Las Palmas Decaf with its passionfruit and peach‑jam sweetness or the Strawberry Co‑Ferment with its bright, expressive character—have earned him growing recognition as part of a new generation of Colombian producers blending tradition, science, and community‑driven innovation to create competition‑level coffees
