ABOUT US
We are a Bolivian company dedicated to producing coffee of the highest quality standards. We aim to harness the virtues of our land to highlight the richness of each bean, carefully tending to every detail — from the plantation to your home. Our holistic approach seeks harmony among three key components: sustainability, people and innovation. We believe that only through this balance can good coffee become truly exceptional.
SUSTAINABILITY
At 4 Llamas, we embrace our responsibility to help build a more sustainable and environmentally respectful future. Aware that coffee processing uses large amounts of water and produces highly contaminated wastewater, we have invested in a system that reduces water consumption and implemented the first stage of a water treatment plant. In terms of production practices, we follow a permaculture approach and agroforestry systems. These methods allow us to work in harmony with nature, supporting healthy ecosystem management and the conservation of natural resources.
PEOPLE
The second pillar is our people — including everyone involved in the production chain, from the strong relationships we build with our workers, who are part of our family, to the producers we collaborate with. We believe that valuing small-scale producers is essential for the development of Bolivia’s agricultural and coffee sectors. Within this framework, we created an initiative called "Familia 4 Llamas", through which we provide producers with technology and technical support for processing their beans, and we accompany them in positioning their coffee — helping improve quality and enabling them to access this niche market.
INNOVATION
At 4 Llamas, we believe that innovation is key to staying ahead in the coffee industry, and we are committed to being at the forefront of this movement. By pushing the boundaries of traditional fermentation processes, we aim to deliver a truly exceptional coffee experience. Our approach embraces both innovative fermentation techniques and traditional washed and natural processes, all with the goal of enhancing flavor complexity and character in our coffees. We follow strict protocols and carefully control every variable during fermentation to achieve the highest standards of quality and taste.
"We seek to become a showcase that demonstrates that it is possible to have a profitable business based on a sustainable, equitable and environmentally fair production system that contributes to the development of Bolivia."
