Sweet Treat is our Autumn Edition — a coffee that felt, from the very first sip, like the season it was made for. Warm, spiced, and deeply comforting, with the kind of sweetness that belongs to slow mornings and shorter days.
It comes from María Belén Díaz, a producer whose connection to coffee goes back to childhood — her father was a coffee grower, and she has been producing specialty coffee herself for over twelve years. Along the way, she spent several years as a coffee quality analyst in Cauca, where she developed her cupping skills and deepened her understanding of processing. In 2024, she became one of the first women in her region to obtain a certification in coffee processing from The Forest Academy, and one of 96 women participating in the Huila Condor Project.
María produces coffee alongside her husband Narciso Narváez and their three sons. They arrived in the municipality of Acevedo as workers, and over time, through hard work and savings, acquired their own farm: Resinas. There, at 1,800 meters, they grow Papayo, Caturra, Castillo, Borbón Rosado, and Gesha — a range that reflects both their ambition and their careful attention to what the land can produce. Their dream is to have their coffee recognised internationally. This is a step in that direction.
