Toffee and caramelized nuts
Néstor and Adrián Lasso, representing the third generation of their family’s coffee-growing heritage. After achieving international recognition for their high-precision anaerobic fermentations and rare varietals at El Diviso (often showcased by champions in World Coffee Competitions), the Lasso brothers established La Planta as an expansion and community-scaling initiative.
Rather than serving as just another single estate, La Planta is the Lasso family’s centralized wet-milling, processing, and drying hub. It allows them to apply the same rigorous post-harvest protocols (thermal shocks, anaerobic macerations, yeast inoculations, controlled mechanical and parabolic drying) to cherries sourced from their extended family plots, allied neighbor farms, and younger regional growers in Bruselas.
