The story of Ospina Coffee began in 1835 when Don Mariano Ospina Rodriguez, one of Colombia’s coffee pioneers, initiated his search for the best lands in which to grow coffee. His vision was to produce a coffee of unrivaled flavor and quality. His destiny was to make history. In due time he established his first plantation in the lush mountains of Antioquia, and in 1857 he was elected President of Colombia.

Building upon his father’s success, Don Pedro Nel Ospina expanded the coffee plantations and in 1922 he was also elected President of Colombia.

Grandson Mariano Ospina-Perez was next to play his part. As the founder and director of the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia in 1929, he successfully organized the nation’s coffee industry. He was later to become the country’s 43rd President in 1946.
