Cata founders Catalina Gutiérrez and Pierre Fargetton first met Nestor Lasso during a coffee sourcing trip in 2019 to Bruselas – a small town high up in Colombia’ prolific growing region of Huila. After tasting his coffees, they embarked on a partnership to support Nestor in exporting his coffees to Europe.
Fast forward six years and Nestor, with substantial financial and market insight support from Cata, has built a reputation as one of the world’s most influential coffee producers. His coffees are renowned for their wildly vibrant flavour profiles, several of which have been used by baristas to win global barista competitions.
This coffee is a celebration of a partnership progressive, impactful and founded on purposeful collaboration to create the maximum amount of value for each participant in the coffee supply chain. An example of true innovation
