2007 Costa Rica Cup of Excellence® Winning Farms - Auction June 21, 2007
Lot#: 2 Carlos Luis Rojas Salas - Guarumal
Guarumal Guarumal
Guarumal

The Family Rojas Alvarado has grown within the coffee activity thanks to their father, Mr. Carlos Luis Rojas Salas, who has invested much time with care and affection to the production of the coffee of quality, involving and stimulating their children to continue with the tradition.

Their properties are located in the surroundings of the Avocado mounts (Montes del Aguacate) in the western region. The climate is mild in the day but at nights there is fog in the highest parts, the ground is watered by the small water easts, which makes it suitable to produce excellent fruit of coffee.

These factors as well as: the quality of the earth, the freshness of the air and the careful handling of the coffee plantations, results in beautiful coffee cherries, strong and with much more honey. All of this in our concept collaborates to improve the quality of the coffee by its ecology and in harmony with the nature.

Also we have a big concern so that the coffee pickers gather the cherries in their better state of ripeness. Only ripe fruit is selected so only excellent quality is processed in the mil. After the coffee is processed, is sun dried in patios.
