SERGIO MONTIEL

“You'll never know if you can if you don't try”

My name is Sergio Montiel Hernández, I was born in 1990 and I work in the fields. There are nine of us in the family, four brothers and five sisters. I am a person who takes importance to the work that my colleagues in the cooperative are doing, I have only been working with parchment coffee for 2 years, doing it in the best way. You could say that there are things that I have really enjoyed working on, I feel confident in what I am doing. I feel confident in myself and my person, I like to do any work activity, I feel happy working, planting coffee plants, growing bananas and planting beans.

Since I was growing up I had the opportunity to get to know my father, who is no longer with us, and in spite of all the problems and obstacles that I have gone through, I really like the work of growing coffee that he taught us. Here in the region it is very important to grow and harvest coffee. Although I must admit that I have just started, I am proud of myself, because I have obtained the results I wanted, a good product and a good job. Before I used to sell coffee in cherry by kilo to the coyote, but I was invited by the cooperative to sell parchment instead. Then I wanted to experiment with some things and know myself and what I am capable of, and in spite of everything I managed to obtain a good product. I am motivated to continue learning more about coffee, because I believe that there are still many things that I have not found, I still have a lot to learn, every day I think about doing something good with my coffee and in this way obtain good points, reach the aromas and flavors, with a good fermentation. I feel very proud of my work and I would not change it for anything else.

I am a person very open to continuing learning about coffee, any new project always interests me, count on me.

I consider myself an honest person, I don’t like to have mistakes in my work, and if there are any, I try to solve them. In the end what I want is to be good with myself and proud of myself.
