About
Finca Don Carlos is owned and operated by Agricafe as part of their Fincas Los Rodríguez project. Agricafe started growing coffee at Finca Don Carlos, named in honour of Carlos Mariaca - their first farm manager, just a few years ago. This year, Finca Don Carlos is going through a period of pruning and renovation. After series of trials the Rodríguez are now planting their coffee plots in wider rows and with closer spacing between plants. This allows more sunlight and better nutrient distribution which benefits the health of the trees. Geisha, Caturra and Catuaí continue to be the main varietals planted at Finca Don Carlos. This season we have selected the Catuaí varietal which was dried on raised beds using the honey process.
