About The Coffee: This coffee has been cultivated on the same trees planted in 1892, on one of the oldest coffee farms in the world. This farm has likely preserved its coffee-growing tradition uninterruptedly since the arrival of the first cultivated coffee trees from Ethiopia. Nestled at an altitude of approximately 3,900 feet (1,200 meters) above sea level, the farm thrives on unique soil conditions shaped by a distinctive microclimate and agroecological practices that prioritize environmental sustainability—a commitment upheld for two centuries, long before such concepts became buzzwords.
The coffee plants are nourished by mist drifting through nearby ravines, providing natural hydration. Melipona bees, flourishing in their native habitat, play a vital role in pollinating a rich diversity of trees, shrubs, and an endless variety of plants. Further enhancing the coffee’s quality, pristine water flows gracefully from the mountains, infusing the soil with essential mineral elements.
Our farmers remain steadfast in their use of time-honored methods that are both efficient and environmentally conscious. They intentionally reject modern mass-production techniques, which often sacrifice quality and damage the environment, ensuring that every cup reflects a legacy of care, craftsmanship, and respect for nature.

Following meticulous selection, the coffee beans underwent a traditional fermentation process lasting 64 hours. This method enriched the beans with exquisite flavor notes of almond, nutty undertones, chocolate, and caramel.
