About This Coffee :

A husband and wife team produces one of the finest harvests in all of Costa Rica!
The amazing coffees of Farami de Dota are the product of an amazing partnership between two equally talented farmers. Husband and wife team Juan Luis Fallas and Maria Eugenia Ramirez have been working the land just outside of Santa María de Dota since the 1980s, when the original plantings were sourced from orphaned trees, just growing by the roadside.

Since these humble beginnings, this inseparable pair have worked hard to create the award-winning farm they have today. Organic farming practices are integral to the production of coffee here – in addition to coffee, Juan Luis and Maria have a passion for animal husbandry. Fresh organic fertilizers from their beloved pigs, goats, and fowl help keep the coffee lush and well-fed, and the methane produced as a byproduct is collected and used to power their home and small micro mill.

And when it comes to coffee production, no detail is overlooked. In this lot, a small harvest of Gesha cherries was collected from a spot on the farm Juan and Maria call “Magia en el Campo.” After a short underwater fermentation, the coffee is carefully eco pulped and then taken to an innovative drying house to complete the process. When finished, the parchment is stored before milling in a temperature-controlled bodega – a small, but very important detail that further separates Farami coffee from the rest.

This particular lot comes from the Gesha variety of coffee, first discovered in Ethiopia’s Gori Gesha forest. Look for an incredible perfumey floral aroma to pair with delicate, yet complex sweet fruit flavors – one of the highest quality coffee varieties to be grown!
