Finca La Linda

Finca La Linda was the first farm set up as by Agricafe as part of their Fincas Los Rodríguez project. Agricafe is owned and managed by Pedro Rodríguez, his daughter Daniela Rodríguez Eulert and son Pedro Pablo Rodríguez Eulert. There are now twelve farms in the group, split between the Caranavi and Samaipata provinces. The farms have six cultivars in production: Caturra, Catuaí, Bourbon, Java, Gesha and Typica, and more than 34 varieties in the nursery for future planting and development. The Rodríguez family are forward thinking in their farming and milling development. Early on they wanted to make sure the farms were being planted and managed using best practices and have been proactive in getting help from specialist agronomists, they also have an enologist from the Argentinian wine industry helping with the wet mill and processing. Pedro, Daniela, and Pedro Junior are rejuvenating and revolutionising coffee growing in Bolivia and the work they are doing now will be important for generations to come. We had the pleasure of welcoming Pedro and Daniela to our roastery in 2024 which was a wonderful opportunity to taste their coffees and for the whole team to hear from them first-hand about their history and the work they do. Please see the August 2024 newsletter for more information and visit agricafe.com.bo to learn more about their story and their projects.
