Description
La Isla is a family-owned coffee farm located in Lourdes de Naranjo, Costa Rica, at 1,560 meters above sea level. It was acquired in 2017 by the Jiménez Peñón family with the vision of producing high-quality coffee in harmony with nature.
Their passion for coffee goes back generations, when the family’s grandparents and great-grandparents purchased their first farms in the Naranjo region. That legacy has evolved with love, learning, and commitment.
Luis, an agronomist and business administrator, and his wife Giorgiana, a designer, lead the project. Their combined backgrounds have given La Isla a unique identity—fresh, elegant, and focused on excellence. Although their daughters, Elena and Milena, are still young, they enjoy spending time on the farm and being part of its story.
La Isla has continuously invested in the research of coffee varieties and processing methods to develop unique micro-lots with consistent quality. In partnership with local organizations, the family also plants hundreds of native trees every year as part of their commitment to environmental conservation and sustainable production.
This will be La Isla’s fourth time participating in the Cup of Excellence international auction—an achievement that reflects the quality, dedication, and consistency behind their work.
