El Rincon farm, part of Finca La Bolsa, sits between two mountains providing a very stable, humid microclimate. Rich limestone soil gives the coffee a rich syrupy body with malic and citric acidity. Sections of the farm are reserved areas to promote biodiversity, reduce exposure to winds and soil erosion. Inga trees are used as shade trees and to fix nitrogen in the soil, which is essential for plant and cherry growth. Fermented for 18-24 hours the cherries are cleaned of mucilage, graded and soaked overnight then dried for 15 days

Why No. 22? – That the number of languages spoken in the country. That's a lot of languages for sure.
