About Us
Coffee, people and mountains: the story behind every lot.
Our story
SABOR del Café was born from the work of coffee-growing families in San Ramón de Alajuela and the Central Valley. What began as a single farm's production became an exporting company that brings together the best lots from several smallholder farmers under one quality standard.
Our philosophy
We believe specialty coffee is the result of the right decisions repeated: pick only ripe cherries, respect process times, dry without rushing and store with care. We do not chase volume at any cost — we pursue consistency and trust.
Sustainable production
We protect the soil, the water and the natural shade of our plantations. The Honey process significantly reduces water use compared to traditional washing and makes use of the cherry's mucilage.
Relationship with farmers
We work through direct, long-term partnerships with smallholder farmers. We pay fair prices at origin and share technical knowledge to raise the quality of every harvest.
Traceability
Every bag can be traced back to its farm, variety, altitude, harvest date and processing method. It is the foundation of trust with our international clients.
Long-term trade relationships
We do not sell isolated transactions. We support our clients harvest after harvest with planned availability, direct communication and personal attention.
