Nicolas Colque arrived in the Yungas area in 1997, when he was 14 years old. When he came alone, he stayed with his grandmother. He started growing rice and tomatoes until he had enough money to buy his first plot of land. He planted his coffee as his neighbors did. Nicolas is married and has three children. Today he wants to expand his farm and produce more specialty coffee. His ultimate goal is to export an entire container of coffee over 90 points.
