When Nestor Lasso and his brother Adrian took over the family farm, they branched out into specialty coffee and experimentation. Today, the two brothers have teamed up with Jhoan Vergara, also the child of a coffee farmer, to create El Diviso. El Diviso brings together the two family farms, El Diviso (Nestor and Adrian Lasso) and Las Flores (Jhoan Vergara), close to the town of Pitalito, in the Huila region of Colombia. This partnership sees the 3 young guys unite their passion and knowledge for coffee to improve quality.

Sidra is a hybrid varietal, a cross between Red Bourbon and Typica exhibiting the characteristics of these two varieties. It has acquired the sweetness and the body of Red Bourbon and the bright taste and acidity of Typica. Sidra is well-recognised for its winning qualities, having won 2 World Barista Championship titles — 2019 by Jooyeon Jeon and 2022 by Anthony Douglas.
