The beans are already rather big and healthy, suggesting a good harvest. Some red grains are already appearing, confirming the precocity of the harvest due to the rains that occurred at the beginning of March whereas in a "normal" year, it does not rain until mid-April or even the end of April. From mid-September, it will be necessary to pass in the plantation to harvest the very early grains. The harvest itself should be in full swing by the end of September

It took time for the company that replaces it to put things back on track and allow us to recover our coffee ... twice because we were first delivered two pallets, the third having been forgotten during the first delivery. The coffee of the 2017-2018 harvest is already on sale in Costa Rica. It will go on sale in Switzerland and France in late August after we have tested different roasts. |
