Who We Are
Our family has been in these mountains for generations. My great-grandfather was born here. My grandfather farmed this land. My father built on what they left, and today Gabriel carries that forward, walking the same farms, overseeing every harvest, making sure each lot that leaves Colombia reflects what four generations of our family have put into this land.
The rest of us grew up with the same roots, and when the time came, we each took a part of the world to bring the coffee to.
One of us is in Canada, one in the United States, one in Europe. We cover the territories, build the relationships, and make sure that when a buyer asks where their coffee comes from, someone from that same family is there to answer.
This is not a company that decided to work with Colombia. We are Colombia. We just happen to now be everywhere.

Roasted coffee
For years we have grown coffee in Colombia and built a network of over 5,000 producer families across Huila, Cundinamarca, Tolima and Sierra Nevada. We are the family behind the coffee, present at every stage from the field to the container.

We Control the Process
Our farms in Huila and Cundinamarca have been in the family since our great-grandfather planted the first seeds here in the 1940s. Hacienda San Gabriel in Arbeláez sits between 1,800 and 2,000 meters above sea level. Hacienda Barinas in Gigante, Huila, sits at 1,700 meters, surrounded by citrus trees and plantain that work their way into the flavor of every lot we produce.
We did not source these farms. We were born into them.
Beyond our own land, our brother Gabriel has spent fifteen years building alliances with over 5,000 producer families across Huila, Cundinamarca, Tolima, and Sierra Nevada. Every family in that network works under the same quality standards and sustainable practices we hold on our own farms. He trains them, visits them, and buys their coffee because he knows exactly how it was grown.
When you buy from Gran·D, you are not buying from a trader who visited Colombia once. You are buying from the family that has been on that land for four generations, that knows every altitude, every harvest window, and every picker by name.
That is what direct from origin means to us.
The People Who Work This Land
A farm is not just soil and altitude. It is the people who show up every morning and know exactly what they are looking at.
In Huila, the women of the ASMUJER cooperative have been picking coffee by hand for years. They work our farms and the farms of our allied families. They know the difference between a cherry that is ready and one that needs another day. That judgment is what makes specialty coffee possible.
Their children grow up watching this. Through Seeds for a Better World, our nonprofit based in Luxembourg, we support the education of those children. Because the communities that grow this coffee deserve as much care as the coffee itself.
Gabriel has led this certification process personally across our own farms and across the allied producer network. It took years. It is maintained every single season.
When you see these certifications on a Gran·D bag, you know someone walked that farm to earn them.
