Sidra is a hybrid variety that was created in Ecuador in the province of Pichincha. This arabica variety is thought to be a cross between a Bourbon and a Typica. The Sidra variety is one of the most complex varieties that exist and is called “NextGeisha”.  

Super excited to share this amazing variety with you 

El Diviso, which sidra cultivated, located in the heart of Bruselas, Huila. El Diviso is owned by Nestor and Adrian Lasso alongside Jhoan Vergara, with this partnership enabling a strong combined driving force to bring their amazing coffees to the attention of the speciality marketplace. They grow exotic varieties including this Sidra Bourbon, Pink Bourbon, Yellow Bourbon, Aji Bourbon, Geisha and Ombligon. 

They have a passion for breaking down all the conventional codes of coffee production, experimenting with exotic varieties, micro organisms, and different fermentation methods. 

Nestor Lasso and his brother Adrian took over the family farm and branched out into specialty coffee and experimentation rather than growing coffee like their parents. Today, at 22 and 24, the two brothers have teamed up with Jhoan Vergara, also the child of a coffee farmer, to create El Diviso. El Diviso brings together the two-family farms, El Diviso (Nestor and Adrian Lasso) and Las Flores (Jhoan Vergara), close to the town of Pitalito, in the Huila region of Colombia. This partnership was great as these 3 young guys united their knowledge to improve quality.
