Featured Coffees
Los Santos | Costa Rica
Since the late 1960’s, Hacienda La Minita has been the foundation of our company. We have exported coffee under the La Minita banner since 1985, becoming one of the initial coffees to be sold as a single estate coffee in the world. Milling operations were added in the early 2000’s and in 2014, the operation was acquired by ITO EN.
Los Santos | Costa Rica
Hacienda La Pradera is a 181 hectare coffee farm in the heart of the Los Santos region at 1,550 meters above sea level. The bulk of our harvest is from the caturra variety which is well suited to the soil and climate of the area. The cup is bright and sweet with medium heavy body, and contains flavor notes of citrus, maple, caramel, and bittersweet cocoa.
Coto Brus | Costa Rica
The plantation is located along the southern border of Costa Rica with Panama in the southern most coffee growing region known as “Coto Brus.” This growing region is named after the indigenous Brunca tribes “Coctus and Brusi.” Coffee was first planted in the region in 1949.
