Lot El Perezoso was grown on three friendly farms in the West Valley region, the latter located in the heart of Costa Rica. Let's have a little introduction to the farms.

The 'El Tanque' farm is the pride of the siblings Johana and Alonso Porras Cabezas. Despite their professional careers , they inherited their parents ' passion for coffee production. They carefully maintain the farm and grow the Caturra and Catuaí varieties that their father cultivated and restored for many years. The proof of their efforts is a steady, quality harvest every year.

The 'El Sol Del Este' farm belongs to Gabriela Rojas Calvo. Her passion for producing excellent coffee goes beyond farming. She is passionate about tasting coffee and enjoys teaching other producers associated with Coopronaranjo R.L.

Gerardo Enrique Salazar Gonzales is the owner of the 3rd beautiful estate called "Don Chano". His coffee farm could easily be mistaken for a botanical garden, with natural, organic farming practices and a wide selection of productive and high quality coffee varieties.

All three estates together produce approximately 550 fanegas per year, equivalent to 250 bags of 69 kg each after processing.

The local soil is rich in nutrients, ideal for growing coffee, and the farms are located at an optimal altitude. In response to disease and climate change, new varieties have been bred over the last 20 years that are resistant to disease and drought, have higher productivity and excellent cup quality. These varieties require greater spacing between plants, ripen faster and produce higher yields. They also require more chemical or natural fertilisers based on soil analysis. Farms are emphasising shade cultivation, especially in view of the current climatic problems. All fertilizers used are approved by the Costa Rican Ministry of Agriculture and there is a strong trend towards the use of microorganisms and natural soil and foliar amendments to maintain soil perfection.
