The family has owned this 2-hectare plantation on the slopes of Tarrazu for a long time. Hellen and his family planted coffee on this fertile land about 10 years ago.

Hellen and her father William collect the coffee that their pickers have hand-picked in the afternoon and then deliver the cherries to the washing station for sorting and drying. They put the coffee in piles on the raised beds and leave it there overnight. The next day, they spread the coffee over the entire surface of the beds in a thin layer for the first few days, then once the pulp is dry, they put it back in thicker layers in order to dry more slowly.

It's pretty impressive what this family has been able to accomplish with so little.

KB Coffee Roasters

We are always on the lookout for the best coffees. We talk to each other. We share our ideas. We order. We roast. We infuse. We taste. We share our impressions. We re-roast... We've been doing this for almost ten years and this is just the beginning. There is no destination for this trip. The quest for the best coffee has become our profession and our way of life.
