Sebastian Ramirez is a fourth-generation coffee farmer who is pushing the boundaries of processing. His focus is on experimental fermentation techniques such as carbonic maceration, honey processing, and co-fermentation. He operates his farm, Finca El Placer; however, he also focuses on operating as a processing facility, working with local farmers who produce exceptional coffees and applying his experimental processing methods to them. He is also a mentor in the Young Producer Program, helping foster the next generation.
