Ranging from 1900 to 2400 meters above sea level, Café Takesi is one of the highest grown coffee´s in the world. From the Mururata Mountain, part of the Royal Mountain Range of the Andes, begins one of the few Inca trails that lead to the Takesi Valley. The Takesi River, water source originating from the thaw of the Royal Mountain Range being abundant and free of contamination, is utilized in all the agricultural tasks, especially in the process of post coffee harvest. The presence of clouds stabilizes the heat and solar radiation during peak hours, influencing in a better photosynthesis. Our deep well-drained organic land, by being of volcanic nature, maintains the totality of the primary biodiversity which translates in a better biologic natural control. These natural conditions prolong the development of the fruit from the flowering to the harvest, to 11 months achieving a fruit with better qualities in aroma and taste.

Located 100 kilometers from the city of La Paz, in the Sud Yungas region we reach the Takesi Estate which stands between 1900 – 3000 meters above sea level with a total of two thousand five hundred (2,500) hectares, six hundred (600) which will be used for different agricultural products, coffee, apples, orchids and flowers and the remaining one thousand nine hundred (1900) hectares will be preserved as a natural virgin forest, maintaining the farms´ special climate and adequate conditions. A unique ecosystem that has, at a higher altitude, exceptional conditions for the cultivation of coffee where a detailed study of the soil, water and climate determined that there is an area of at least 600 hectares with optimum hydric and ecological properties, a soil formed above a volcanic surface containing a covering of organic materials, in some places up to the 2 meters in depth. At present the Estate has 13 hectares of Typica coffee with an average production of 120 bags of 70 kilos of green coffee. The Café Takesi team has begun to plant 20 hectares and will plant 20 more hectares each year for 4 consecutive years. The farm has an annual rainfall of 1800-2500 mm per year, a relative humidity of 70% and an average temperature of 15°C (59°F).
