The Trenton - Costa Rica - Sustainably grown & harvested

*************************

We source this fantastic coffee from the great folks at Cafe Imports.  Here’s what they have to tell us about the farm and mill:

Don Sabino Micromill is a father-son project that produces meticulous coffees in what seems like "simple" conditions, but with incredible care and attention to detail.

Though the mill was established in 2011, Steven Vargas and his father have both been in coffee their whole lives. They own several plots of farmland in the area, where they grow a number of different varieties: Villa Sarchi is their primary crop, but they also grow, Catuai, Caturra, Gesha, SL-28, and a small amount of Mokka. For several of the mill's early years, the Vargas drying beds were full of only Naturals, but lately, Steven is attempting a small amount of Honey coffee as well, "because Luis likes it," he says of Luis Arocha, the senior green-coffee buyer for Oxcart Coffee: Cafe Imports Latin America, who is based out of the office in San José.

The Don Sabino micromill manages the farms El Apostol, El Orvo, and La Roca.
