Roaster’s Notes
Matalapa, whose name means 'place where rivers are born', is a fourth generation 174 acre farm averaging 4,100 feet above sea level. It was founded in the late 1800's by Fidelia Lima, great grandmother of the current owner, Vickie Ann Dalton de Diaz. Vickie maintains 14 acres of virgin tropical forest and keeps her coffee plants shaded with over forty varieties of shades trees.
