The Story Behind Tres Dragones – Fermentation, Fire, and Flavor The name "Tres Dragones" comes from the dramatic drying process, where flames from mechanical silos shoot out, resembling three dragons. But the real magic lies in the fermentation—a carefully controlled 36-hour low-temperature fermentation followed by a slow, meticulous drying process. This technique enhances the coffee’s jammy fruit intensity, dark chocolate richness, and layered complexity, setting it apart from traditional naturals. Tres Dragones is produced by Café Granja La Esperanza, one of Colombia’s most innovative specialty coffee farms.

The Producer – Café Granja La Esperanza Siblings Rigoberto and Luis Eduardo Herrera are third-generation coffee producers, carrying on a legacy of excellence that began in 1945 at Potosí Farm. Their grandparents, Juan Antonio Herrera and Blanca Ligia Correa, first cultivated Typica coffee plants before expanding into Red Bourbon, Yellow Bourbon, and Caturra—laying the foundation for what would become Café Granja La Esperanza. When Rigoberto and Luis took over in the late 1990s, they transformed the farm into a pioneer of organic and experimental coffee production. Over three decades, they have modernized Potosí Farm’s 52 producing hectares, cultivating an extraordinary range of varieties, from classic Colombian cultivars to rare exotics like Gesha, Sidra, San Juan, Mandela, and SL28. Today, Café Granja La Esperanza is recognized globally for pushing the boundaries of specialty coffee, producing some of the world’s most sought-after and high-scoring coffees.
