We are born where the clouds brush against the coffee plantations. Inspired by the indigenous peoples’ deep respect for the land, every APU coffee bean is harvested and roasted entirely by hand, transforming the mystique of the mountains into an unparalleled sensory experience. Proudly grown at 1,700 meters above sea level in Huila.

Our story didn’t begin yesterday; it has been cultivated over decades. In 2012, Catalina Castillo and Miguel Llanos decided to take a step forward and transform the family tradition. With the firm intention of bringing unique added value to coffee cultivation, they embraced the legacy of the Llanos family, who have dedicatedly worked the lands of the Huila department for three generations.

We grow our own coffee on micro-plots, ensuring traceability for each of the seven varieties we cultivate: Caturra, Yellow Bourbon, Pink Bourbon, Gesha, Yirgacheffe, Laurina, and Typica.

We have many exclusive varieties in our catalog. We export green, roasted whole-bean, or ground coffee..
We export our quality coffees to the following countries:
Canada, the United States, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Germany, England, Slovakia, Switzerland, Taiwan, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
Proudly recognized by the Departmental Government with the “Marca Origen Huila” seal.
An award presented by the REGIONAL AUTONOMOUS CORPORATION OF THE UPPER MAGDALENA (CAM) on behalf of the Ministry of the Environment and Procolombia.
Winners of second place in design and visual identity at regional specialty coffee fairs.
In our catalog, we focus on excellence in every coffee bean.
A tribute to the artistry and technical precision
that go into preparing every cup of APU
At @olfatocurioso, we love coffee that tells stories, and @apucafe’s story is one of overcoming adversity, love for family, and dedication to what they do every day. ❤️
And I fell in love when I first tried the products from @apucafe, a local brand from Teruel. When I drink it, I feel like I’m teleported to the majestic coffee mountains of Huila—its aroma and flavor are simply spectacular
I’m so proud of good Colombian coffee
