Roaster’s Notes
Conditions at La Esperanza are optimal for coffee cultivation. Receiving 47-55 inches of rainfall annually and protection from frost due to the dry and hot winds from the nearby Tehuantepec plain in Mexico. Additionally this region has many stream and rivers, which allows the farm to have its own wet mill. The farm is owned by Otto Rafael Herrera and is 13.42ha with Limestone soil and shade trees (Chalum and Inga)
