Heart of the Colombian Coffee Axis

Café Uba sits in the hills of Arabia, just outside Pereira in Colombia's coffee axis. It's the specialty label of Café Fino SAS, a third-generation growing family led by Julio Andrés Quiceno. Together they farm four sites: Finca Milán, in production since 1982, Finca Buenos Aires, established in 1998, plus Capri and La Riviera, which was built as a dedicated processing facility for their more adventurous fermentations. Alongside classic washed and natural lots, they work with nitro fermentation, carbonic maceration and double fermentation across Pink Bourbon, Purple Caturra, Castillo Naranjal and Yellow Caturra.

Finca Milán

Located in the village of Betulia (Arabia district, Pereira), Finca Milán has been producing all types of coffee since 1982, including Pink Bourbon, Purple Caturra, Caturra, Colombia, and Castillo Naranjal. This is where we develop our unique processes, such as Culturing and Nitro fermentation. We also process our coffees using more traditional methods like Washed and Natural. The farm also protects three natural springs and features biological corridors of guadua bamboo.

Our farm grows varieties such as Pink Bourbon, Caturra, Purple Caturra, Castillo, and Yellow Caturra, using washed, anaerobic, natural, honey, carbonic maceration, and double fermentation processes. The farm also stands out for its commitment to sustainability, protecting five natural springs and maintaining biological corridors for birds and other native species.
