The harvest at the Hacienda, visit us! The beautiful story of coffee begins with the harvest of the coffee cherries (the fruit of our Arabica plant). Picking is the method our collaborators are using in every season from October to February. Our Haciendas are spread all over the mountains of Costa Rica, which means that we can blend or select different flavors of each geographical location.

After collecting all our farms best crops, the next stage is the processing phase, where the coffee beans are separated from the fruit by eliminating the pulp and the skin. At the end of this phase, we identify the coffee with specific commercial types that comply with international classifications.
OUR FACTORY IS IN HARMONY WITH THE COMMUNITY AND WITH THE ENVIRONMENT.
Since our cherries are distinguished by a uniform maturation and consistency Our treatment includes the Wet processing, which is used for the most highly prized qualities of coffee, yields a product classified as 'washed' or 'mild' coffee, producing a coffee uniform in appearance with no physical defects. A machine strips the flesh and separates the skin (epicarp) from the beans and they are then placed in special water tanks for one or two days to ferment.
