Puerto Rico-San Pedro Estate

The history of coffee in the Caribbean Sea is closely related to the Spanish name transfer. Coffee in various places was not so important in the 18th century. The most important work was to grow sugar crops in fertile valley land. In the early 19th century (1800), the residents of Coscia Island in the French Mediterranean migrated to Puerto Rico. Because the valley land had been occupied by Spanish immigrants, they chose to settle in the southwest mountains of the island. Most of them were near Yuco City. Because of their hard work and determination, coffee cultivation brought them good returns. They dominated the island's coffee industry in the 1860s. At that time, Puerto Rico's coffee bean production was the sixth highest in the world. Those Corsican immigrants planted coffee trees in the highlands. The fruit was regarded as selected.(Yauco Selecto) The origin of coffee beans also mainly dates back to this period. However, two severe hurricanes hit Puerto Rico in 1898. These two hurricanes destroyed the local coffee industry. Farmers had to wait two years for the crop to return to normal. During this period, the United States was very interested in sugar production in Puerto Rico. In addition, European countries no longer regarded Puerto Rico coffee beans as crops produced in their colonies and imposed tariffs. It hit Puerto Rico coffee hard.

Caribbean Sea is a warm romantic mysterious sea area. Many good coffees also surround this ring sea area. Jamaica Blue Mountain, Dominica, Cuba Crystal Mountain, Puerto Rico Yuco, etc. These are the most famous rare and expensive coffees in the world. These island beans make people have a light milk fragrance and elegant flower fragrance. The acid quality is delicate and soft. Although it is still difficult to avoid the problem that coffee is easy to lose moisture due to the sultry climate of the island, the overall texture is the first-class beans in coffee. Puerto Rico coffee is not easy to buy in the market mainly because of the low yield and most exports to Europe, coupled with the adverse effects of severe weather and hurricane damage on coffee crops, there will be no coffee to buy that year.

The San Pedro estate, located in the West Bank, began producing coffee beans in the 19th century, initially sold as Yauco Selecto on the West Bank estate, and now sells about 1000 bags of San Pedro coffee entirely on its own farm. This is the first time Direct Coffee has introduced coffee beans from Puerto Rico.
