From flowers to roasted coffee

Flowering

Flowering  takes place at the end of the dry season, very soon after the first big rain. The fragrant smell of flowers is strongly present because everything blooms suddenly, covering the entire plantation with white blossom.

Harvest

Harvesting takes place 7-9 months later. Only the ripe, red cherries are picked, hence the need to pick several times over a period of 2 to 3 months.
​​

The "microbeneficio"

It is a micro-factory that allows to depulp, wash to eliminate "honey" that adheres to the grain and dry it (11-12% water) to obtain the "parchment" coffee (of the "parchment" that still surrounds the seed).

Sorting and exportation

The parchment removal operations and a selective sorting to obtain the best quality of green coffee are subcontracted to the Beneficio "Jardin de aromas". Then the coffee is exported by boat in bags of 23 kg.

Roasting

The roasting is done in the country of marketing to stick at best to the taste of the consumer (here in Switzerland, Grain Noir, in Costa Rica : CoopeAtenas).
