Arab Bourbon Coffee Tree-Galapagos Islands Coffee-Hasunda Coffee Garden

Through the reclamation of early land, the area of the coffee plantation doubled. Because of the unique role of the Galapagos Islands in the course of history, the Ecuadorian government has turned the archipelago into a national park and no longer allows the land to be reclaimed as new agricultural land. and the introduction and use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and other chemicals are strictly prohibited, so coffee in the Galapagos Islands is recognized as a natural product as the world coffee industry is moving towards a targeted mass production model. So a coffee industry like San Cristobal, which is small and of uncertain quality, is in trouble and is likely to be forced to give up unprofitable.

In the early 1990s, however, the Gonzalez family bought Hasunda Coffee Park. The local microclimate caused by the Humboldt current (Humboldt Current), strong equatorial sunlight and sharp temperature changes (43 ℃ at sea level and 10: 16 ℃ at 275m above sea level) provided a unique advantage that prompted the Gonzalez family to expand the coffee plantation in 1875. Ecuador's indigenous Ma Corvos has planted about 100 hectares of Arabian bourbon coffee trees at the Hasunda Coffee Garden (Hacienda El Cafetal) in San Cristobal. The elevation of the plantation is between 140m and 275m, and the climate of the area is equivalent to that of 910m to 1830 m inland, so the gradient is suitable for the growth of high acidity extra hard coffee beans (SHB), which is also the key to the high quality coffee grown in Saint Crst ó bal. St. Cristobal is a larger island in the Galapagos Islands (Galapagos Islands) and the only one in the archipelago with plenty of fresh water. At an elevation of 410m above sea level, there is a small lake called El.Junco. Several streams flow along the rocks and volcanic rocks on the southern slope of the island. Mineral-rich fresh water moistens the land of St. Cristobal, making the soil moist and fertile forever.
