La Edda S.A.
Beneficio La Guaria (La Guaria Mill) and the entire
crop produced, in this case in La Edda S.A., constitute a family company
with a long coffee history. The goal in La Guaria mill is to always
produce high quality coffee in harmony with nature.
Mr. Braulio Moral Cervantes, pioneer in the
costarican coffee culture, begun approximately in 1850 with a coffee
based family business, and this was continued for five generations more.
In 1994, the productive efforts where united in the family and a new
mill was created taking again the original name of one of the first
mills in the family: La Guaria.
The quality in La Guaria coffee is guaranteed by
rigorous mechanical and manual selections in our farm. The coffee
production is made with moderate shade, which allows the crop to have a
wider biodiversity in order to obtain a harvest of better
characteristics.
At the time of the harvest, 250 families move into La
Guaria property where they are provided with housing, electricity and
potable water during their permanency in this land. They also receive a
fair and attractive wage that allows them to improve the quality of life
of each one of these families.
