Costa Rican coffee is of the most stable quality in Central American coffee, mainly because it grows in the natural environment of complete tree shade and cool rainy night with large temperature difference in the morning and evening. Coupled with the rich soil and stable progress in the middle and rear treatment, Costa Rican coffee has a bad reputation, which has long been an indicator of Central American coffee. The more famous producing areas are the Tarazu Sanshui River and the Central Valley, etc., but inspired by the coffee cup test competition, many manors are becoming more and more refined. More and more small and beautiful previously unknown manors gradually increase their popularity so that the world can taste more levels, more kinds and more ways of handling Costa Rican coffee beans. Costa Rica's current treatment is also developing in many ways. In addition to the well-known traditional washing method and the most popular honey treatment (Miel Process), sun-dried beans are available even in this water-rich country, all to make up for the weakness of the taste.

Costa Rica Monte Alto Farm of Montealto Manor, Costa Rica

Back in the early 20th century, Don Julio Sanchez Lepiz bought Montalto Manor, and since then, the estate's coffee tradition has been dedicated to providing the best quality coffee.

In the beginning, in order to better manage the manor, Don Julio gave different names to each part of the manor. After Don Julio left, his sons Julio,Juan,Milton,Edgar and Carlos shared their father's inheritance.

Today, Don Julio's grandson Milton S á nchez Mar í n (Milton Sanchez Marin) is responsible for overseeing the production of high-quality coffee on the estate. The manor is also divided into two parts from its original state: Oaxaca and Jujumeca, the initials of the children of Don Julio, symbolizing the unity of the family.

The production of the manor meets the standards of the Rainforest Alliance, ensuring that strict socio-economic and sustainable principles are maintained.
