Women Owned Coffee Farm – Caturra
Zalmari Coffee Estate lies in the micro-region of Cachí, Orosí Valley in Costa Rica, Central America. This beautiful area known as the Cachí Valley is nestled between volcanic mountain ranges with water sheds of fresh, crystal-clear water. Farm production methods combined with environmentally friendly practices produce top-quality coffee in harmony with nature. They grow Caturra, Bourbon, and Obatá, Arabica hybrid varieties. There SHB is cultivated at 1200 meters above sea level. This provides the essential cold evening temperatures to ensure the optimum conditions needed to produce a rich, full-flavored drink. Fourth-generation Cecilia Genis runs Zalmari Coffee Estate together with her mother Marigold Murray. They both continue to carry on the family’s tradition of social and responsible farming practices.
The family’s coffee affair began in 1914 and their commitment to quality coffee and community continues to be the strongest thread from generation to generation.
Micro Mill
We started our own micro-processing plant in 1997. The milling is done with reduced amounts of water which goes to the settling ponds after the process is completed. We dry on African Beds and give the finishing touch in the dryers.
