About this coffee:
The mix of two varietals Obata and Marsellesa has made “Between Rivers” a delicate, versatile, and unique coffee. Washed process by detaching the pulp & mucilage, then mechanically washed, followed by 32 hours drying in the “Guardiola”, 45ºC – 55ºC ranges. 
 
Aquiares Farm is nestled between the Aquiares and Turrialba rivers. The size of the farm is 924 Hectares at aaltitude od 1,000 to 1,400 meters above sea level. All Aquiares coffee is picked by hand to ensure consistent high quality. The skilled hands of the pickers represent the farm’s most valuable asset. Pickers hail from the community of Aquiares, nearby towns, and even from the neighboring country of Nicaragua. The farm ensures that all workers have a safe work environment and a comfortable place to live. Workers coming from further away can live in on-site housing and use a children’s day-care. 
 
The Region where the farm is located used to be the center of the Huetar pre-Columbian civilization."Aquiares" means "land between two rivers" in Costa Rica's indigenous Huetar language. Occasionally artefacts are found among the coffee trees. On the farm is a pre-Columbian aquiver: "Ojo de Agua El Pizote" - is a natural spring within an indigenous aqueduct located on Aquiares Farm
 
Coffee plots are interlaced with natural springs and countless streams and rivers. The network of natural corridors throughout the farm connects large preserved forests providing a healthy environment for the animals, birds and plants.
