About This Coffee

Translating to the “land between rivers”, the Aquiares Estate and Community is nestled between the Aquiares and Turrialba rivers, high on the verdant slopes of the active Turrialba volcano. Innovation and creativity have been cornerstones of the estate since Alfonso Robelo took over in the late 80’s, when he set about introducing schemes to enable workers to own their own homes - typically they would have lived in homes owned by the farm, with little stability. Aquiares has since become a vibrant community, and the nearly 1800 people who live there today are offered jobs, land and education
