About this Coffee
Known as "the place where volcanoes awaken," San Marcos has the perfect climate for shade grown coffee - rich volcanic soil, heat, and humidity allows the beans to ripen more slowly and develop sweeter, more complex flavours. Shade growing coffee also protects watersheds, reduces soil erosion, and supports a more diverse ecosystem.
