Welcome to the El Carmen Estate, a haven nestled within the picturesque Apaneca-Ilamatepec mountain range. Here, meticulous attention is devoted to every facet of cultivation, ensuring the distinctive character of each lot is preserved with utmost care. Our discerning process begins by selecting only the ripest cherries, which are then delicately cleansed with pure spring water and caressed by the sun's warmth on clay patios.
This labor of love continues as the coffee, now transformed into parchment-covered beans, finds its home in wooden silos. Patiently, it undergoes a restful transformation for a minimum of 60 days, meticulously managed under controlled conditions. This period allows the beans to attain a harmonious balance of humidity and color, a testament to our dedication.
