Description

Overview

13 years ago Luis Ricardo Calderon received this 4 hectares property from his father, with the aim of having a coffee farm. In 1999, Luis Ricardo and his wife, Lourdes Castillo, started sowing the land. Lourdes helped with the administration of their few goods, which have been increased thanks to the team work together with their sons. The majority of the land has Catuahi variety. It is fertilized every year, and only once has been atomized last year because of the cold winter we had in the region. It has been producing for the last 12 years and giving us the chance to get to know the real taste of Costarrican coffee. It is located in Dota Valley, Tarrazu region, and its highest area is 2000 above sea level.
