Cultivation Our Arabica coffee grows at heights varying between 1250 and 1800 meters, at temperatures ranging between 20 and 25 degrees. Crops are grown in the shade of other fruit or wood plants that help reduce water evaporation, soil erosion and protect the plantation from the sun, as well as being fundamental for protecting biodiversity and offering protection from the sun to the farmer on harvest days. Harvesting and processing The harvest of the ripe fruit (called cherry) takes place in dry and less rainy periods of the year. Cherries contain two paired grains, wrapped in a protective membrane (the parchment). Our coffee is processed using the wet method, which guarantees quality and value to the coffee, avoiding in most cases the need for subsequent defect correction operations. The green coffee, after drying, is toasted and the beans are transformed into crumbly, light, brown and fragrant, and ready to be ground.
