Valentina joins Juan Valdez
Juan Valdez, the man and his donkey Conchita, are the international face of the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia.
The Federation was established in 1927 as a not for profit and non-political cooperative to market Colombian coffee and undertake research, social assistance and promotional programs on behalf of the small, independent coffee farmers in Colombia.
Most important, the Federation establishes and maintains the highest standards for Colombian coffee. It carefully monitors and controls the coffee that leaves Colombia and only extends it’s famous trade mark to those suppliers who meet it’s stringent requirements.
Valentina Coffee is the newest of only 6 brands in Australia which can proudly display the famous Juan Valdez trade mark.

Coffee Drought in Colombia but not in Brisbane
Jorge Lozano of the National Association of Colombian Coffee Exporters has predicted that, due mainly to inclement weather factors, Colombia will produce less than 11 million bags of coffee this year for the first time since 2001.
Lozano is quoted as saying: “The figures we’re seeing show a substantial reduction. Eleven million would be a miracle….Colombia has been selling all of its production.”
Indeed it has been selling it all. Keen to do it too, as coffee is one of the main export products of the country and is driven by the famous Juan Valdez “100% Pure Colombian Coffee” campaign as the dude and his donkey wander over the TV screens of the USA.
While there are concerns that that some Colombian beans are currently being cut with coffee imported into Colombia from other South American countries, Valentina can assure all Brisbane devotees that our beans are 100% Colombian grown and roasted by our family.
