Coffee Origins
Ombligon is a relatively unknown varietal that hails from Colombia but it has quickly gained a reputation of exceptional flavour. At the 2023 World Barista Championships, Australia’s Jack Simpson (who placed third) used Ombligon for his espresso, milk, and signature beverage courses. Similar to the gesha varietal, Ombligon beans are notably large and dense, indicating their high sugar content and flavour potential.
Jhon Wilmer Cuellar grew up in the world of coffee, becoming a thirdgeneration coffee farmer in the beautiful region of Acevedo, Huila. His
family has worked the land for years, and today, Jhon continues the
tradition with passion. He has been focusing on coffee cultivation for the
last 15 years, running a 10-hectare farm called Las Brisas, located at an
altitude of 1,500 meters above sea level.
What sets Jhon’s farm apart is his love for experimenting with new
coffee varieties and processes. He enjoys working with traditional
methods, but he’s also passionate about exploring newer fermentation
techniques like oxidation and anaerobic methods. Each variety has its
own process, and Jhon takes special care in adjusting fermentation times
to bring out the best in every batch.
For Jhon, the most rewarding part of coffee farming is the tasting
process. After all the hard work of cultivation, processing, and drying,
Jhon loves to sample the coffee and explore the unique profiles of each
batch. His dedication to quality and innovation is what makes the coffee
from Las Brisas stand out, offering a rich and flavorful experience for
coffee lovers around the world.
