Coffee Origin

Organic Costa Rica La Amistad comes from Hacienda La Amistad in Coto Brus, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, a family-owned coffee farm operated by third-generation producer Roberto Montero. Located near La Amistad International Park, the estate combines organic coffee production with a longstanding commitment to conservation and environmental stewardship.

The history of Hacienda La Amistad stretches back generations. Roberto's grandfather first came to the region in the early 1900s while surveying the border between Costa Rica and Panama and later purchased land where the family began cultivating coffee. Over time, the family returned more than 6,000 hectares to the Costa Rican government for preservation as part of La Amistad International Park.

Today, only approximately 300 hectares of the estate are dedicated to coffee cultivation, while much of the remaining property is preserved forest that provides habitat for native wildlife. Hacienda La Amistad also supports its surrounding community through year-round employment and resources for seasonal harvest workers and their families.

Organic farming, careful fully washed processing, and the distinctive growing conditions of Coto Brus come together in a coffee characterized by rich dark caramel, smooth milk chocolate, and sweet orange marmalade.
