Costa Rica

Our Caturra & Catuaí Anaerobic comes from Cordillera de Fuego, a micromill in Tarrazú, Costa Rica. In 2015, Luis Eduardo Campos and his partner Coco founded Cordillera de Fuego to process the coffee from his own farm and from neighboring farmers. Since 2006, Luis Eduardo Campos has been experimenting with anaerobic processes. In an interview we conducted with Luis Eduardo, he shared “What fulfills me most professionally is helping the producers. I tell my partner that God has given us this tool today—the Cordillera de Fuego micromill. We’re a small company, but we can pass the money we receive from importers and roasters on to the producers. This way, 200 families can live well, independently of the New York Stock Exchange prices.”
