In 2007 Efrain “Macho” Naranjo bought his first. This Red Catuai is processed as a “reposado” – the coffee cherries are rested in big plastic barrels for 48 hours before being processed as white honey. This leaves us with a coffee that taste absolutely incredible. Packed with notes of cherries, orange, raspberries and milk chocolate and yet so elegant.
piece of land on the mountain slopes of Santa Rosa de Leon Cortes in Tarrazu, Costa Rica. The first few years he worked between 18-20 hours per day convinced that he could create something magical on his land. After a few hard years he was able to buy more land and now his farm Santa Rosa 1900 has 28 hectares planted with all kinds of coffee varieties. He runs the farm together with his two sons – Herberth and Kevin.
The micro mill is situated at 1900 meters above sea level and the land stretches up to 2000 meters, which makes it one of the most elevated in Costa Rica.
