Information: Wilton Benitez, hailing from the municipality of Piendamo in the department of Cauca, southern Colombia, is a passionate coffee producer, an example of how steadfast determination and having a vision can yield significant results also in the realm of coffee cultivation. His affinity for coffee cultivation began in his youth, as he embarked in the world of coffee processing and cultivation.

Over time, his interest in technology grew, leading him to realize the potential of integrating technology into coffee farming. The convergence of these two passions has enabled Wilton to produce some of the most innovative coffees in the industry to the point he is quite well known today even from end consumers actively looking for his coffees.

His family farm, Granja El Paraiso-92, serves as the hub for producing more than 20 coffee varietals through cutting-edge cultivation methods. Finca Paraiso-92 boasts its microbiology laboratory, quality laboratory, and processing plant. The meticulous processes applied to the diverse coffees commence with a rigorous selection, sterilization, and characterization of the cherries, followed by the initial phase of controlled anaerobic fermentation. Naturally, these are just the initial steps in a series of processes on his farm, all carefully monitored from inception to conclusion to ensure attention to every detail.
