Beginning in 1930, Israel Correa and Carmen Rosa Vega arrived in Valle del Cauca seeking unoccupied land to start a farm, acquiring Potosi. Over the upcoming years, there weren’t major changes in their way of life, besides of raising a big family which was the Colombian tradition in those days. Following this and the lack of labor, the children had to help by doing farm work. In 1945, three different varieties were introduced to the existing Typica; Yellow Bourbon, Red Bourbon and Caturra. Cafe Granja La Esperanza was born.

Two of the eleven children, Rigoberto and Luis, showed special interest in coffee production and processing. They decided to give their crop a new direction, changing to organic in the late 90’s. Besides Potosí, another farm in the Trujillo region was acquired to enlarge the organic production, La Esperanza farm. In 2007 Don Rigoberto had the chance to lease and manage a coffee farm in the region of Boquete in Panama, called “La Carleida”, and a year later obtained first place in the “Best coffee of Panama”. At this point he decided to bring some of the Geisha seeds to Colombia, starting a new era in the history of Granja La Esperanza.

Five farms now make up the Café Granja La Esperanza: Cerro Azul, Las Margaritas, La Esperanza, Potosi and Hawaii. With a reputation for producing competition winning coffees, processes are matched with varieties to produce unique flavour profiles.

Makes excellent Flat White and Americano.

Having gotten back from South Korea, I wanted to have a daily Flat White from now on. The guys at White Rose recommended this. And it's awesome. Smooth, full body but not overpowering, sweet, perfect in a flat white. I also have it as Americano, also very good. My favourite coffee I've had from White Rose.

Nice casual coffee - delivery slow

Would order more from White Rose, their coffee is very good, but the delivery company they use is appallingly slow

Very enjoyable despite the initial slow delivery,
caused by the carrier.
I’ve set up a monthly subscription so I expect the coffee quality will be consistent.

Lovely flavour

I tend to order coffee for its flavour rather that its strength and this doesn’t disappoint.
