The coffee heritage of Colombia, near Villa de Leyva

Between Villa de Leyva and Puente Nacional, the mountains where Colombia’s coffee story was born.

From History to Living Tradition

Before Colombia had the “Coffee Axis,” the country’s first coffee seeds arrived through the roads of Villa de Leyva and Puente Nacional. The Spanish founder Andrés Díaz Venero de Leyva established both towns as agricultural centers — unknowingly paving the route for coffee’s arrival centuries later.

From these lands, Arabica coffee spread across Colombia. This is why we say: Colombian coffee was born in Santander.
