Café Don Benjie - Typica Washed

The farm lies alongside the pristine waters of the Caldera River in the Bajo Mono Canyon and the altitude of the plantation ranges from 1400 to 1550 meters. Bajo Mono is known amongst the best regions for growing great quality coffees, as the region is blessed with volcanic soil, crystal clear spring water fountains, the famous mist called Bajareque, forming one of the many microclimates that make the region famous for specialty coffee growing.

Our plantation is under a constant renewal, always aiming for excellent quality, taking care of the environment and the well being of our workforce. We are producing micro lots of specialty coffees that are carefully harvested by varietal and then processed as naturals, washed, semi washed, machine or sun dried.

During the past two tears we also have been processing with innovative fermentations as anaerobic and carbonic macerations, yeast fermentations and other experimental processes with excellent results. The coffee-cherries are hand selected and carefully sun dried on beds.

Our washed coffees are processed with a very limited use of spring water in order to contribute to the environment, always aiming for a cup of excellence.
