Introduction of Harappa producing area

Harappa is located between Fahannes and New Oriental. Twenty years ago, no one believed that coffee could grow in this area. Farmer Abel Valladares (owner of Pina) is an agronomist who believes that the microclimatic conditions on the Harappa hills are an ideal environment for growing coffee. After he planted the Pacas variety 42 hectares and grew luxuriantly, he also proved that others' theory that the land could not grow coffee was wrong. Four years after planting the Pacas variety, Abel began to sow the seeds of a geisha.

In the past, it was always obscured by the halo of the two major producing areas of Fahannis and New Oriental, and with the rise of the cultivation of local boutique coffee, and because of the drier climate, Harappa has become famous for its excellent sun and honey treatments in recent years.

Introduction to Pina Manor Geisha

In 2016, Pina Manor produced nine bags of precious honey-treated geisha. Farmer Abel completed the aftermath of these geisha in the company of moonlight, so this group of rare and precious honey-treated geisha is also known as "Honey-Moon" honeymoon geisha!

Pina Manor is surrounded not only by the surrounding pine woods, but also by sacred volcanoes, so it gets a special flavor of coffee. Programs to help social structures have been carried out through education, coffee production and closeness to nature for a long time, with the aim of enabling local people to have a better quality of life. There was more rain in the Harappa region in 2017 than last year, and it has accumulated an amazing amount of 700mm rainfall. Geisha coffee trees are blooming very well, and this year's output is estimated to be three times that of last year.

Starting in 2017, Abel planted new varieties at lower elevations on the estate: Maracaturra and Pacamara.
