Luz Helena grew up in Armenia and has been producing coffee for the last 20 years. She owns Maracay, an 8-hectare farm located at 1450 m.a.s.l, in Armenia Quindio. Luz is Carlos and Felipe’s mother, the co-founders of Cofinet and wife of Jairo Arcila.

Luz's passion for coffee was inspired by her husband's work on coffee farms and as a dry mill manager. Luz would hear Jairo talking about coffee and wanted to be more involved in the industry. With the support of Jairo, Luz started learning how to care for coffee plants and what steps she needed to take to produce high-quality, ripe cherries. Luz found dealing with insects very challenging at the start and would draw on Jairo's knowledge to help with this.

This coffee is a carefully curated blend of the finest fruit-macerated washed lots from Luz Helena. The exclusive Sunrise Decaf Edition show cases a vibrant array of flavors, achieved through a meticulous decaffeination process that preserves the coffee's natural sweetness and complexity. The caffeine is extracted from the bean using sugar cane ethylacetate (EA) and water which enhances sweetness while maintaining coffee attributes.
