About This Coffee
This is a honey-processed lot from Finca Las Torres, one of Rivense's several high-elevation growing areas and consisting of Caturra and Catuai varieties.
Café Rivense is a farm and micromill founded by Régulo Ureña and Isabel Rojas in 2005 in the Brunca area of Costa Rica, within in a micro-region called Chirripó. Today, Rivense remains a family enterprise run with the participation of their children Ricardo, Mario, Esteban, Luis, and Tatiana. The Rivense operation consists of several lush, garden-like growing areas with distinct names, which deliver cherry to fully integrated wet and dry-milling facilities all within the farm itself, meaning that their coffee is fully prepared for export when it leaves the farm, ensuring both quality and tracability of its products.
Rivense's coffees have been recognized for quality numerous times, with one lot notably placing 5th in Costa Rica's Cup of Excellence competition in 2019.
