NOMAD - Central American {Filter} | Costa Rica - Natural Anaerobic - Central American (Cross: Sarchimor x Rume Sudan)

Aquiares is owned by Diego Robelo and his family. Situated on the slopes of the Turrialba volcano at 1,400 MASL, it is the largest single-block coffee plantation in Costa Rica. The land is crisscrossed by various waterways that connect the two major rivers surrounding the farm, the Turrialba and the Aquiares. It is a majestic natural setting that was home to a small pre-Columbian community hundreds of years ago, and traces of which can still be found today. This is the tenth consecutive year we’ve worked together, and the ninth in which we’ve dealt directly.

We negotiate the price directly with Diego, and he acts as the exporter, so that commission also stays on the farm. Additionally, we import the coffee ourselves, chartering a container directly from Costa Rica to Barcelona.
