SYNOPSIS

On the slopes of one of the volcanoes, peas volcano, part of the central volcanic mountain range, is where we find the coffee plantations. 

In Costa Rica, coffee has achieved great development in this area of the country thanks to the quality of our soil and climatic conditions, so we've become a country that produces one of the best co ees in the world.

These attributes can be accomplished thanks to our strict quality control throughout the process. Since the choice of the land, the planting, the plant care with organic fertilizers to protect the environment, the manual harvesting, until the moment Coope Victoria is the oldest cooperative in Costa Rica and envision Finca Inés to become both a co ee lab and model farm, dedicated to producing the most complex coffees in the West Valley region. For industrialization Coope Victoria R.L. has a mill, "beneficio”, equipped with modern tools and facilities to process the co ee beans and generate great features at a high sensory level.

This lot is a washed Geisha that has been de-pulped the same day as picking, fermented and dried on raised beds for 9 days.
