    Don Claudio Project - Caturra - Catuai -Obata [natural] — Costa Rica

    Don Claudio Project is grown by four members of CoopeAgri. The name is a tribute to Claudio Gamboa Calderón who helped found the co-op in 1962. The coffee was processed using the natural method, once harvested, the coffee cherries are washed, sorted & then placed on raised beds to dry in the sun. Depending on the weather this can take from 8-25 days.

    Caturra is a mutation of Bourbon discovered in Brasil in 1937. The plant is a dwarf allowing it to be planted close together resulting in more production per hectare. Caturra has good flavour characteristics but is susceptible to disease.

    Catuai is a hybrid of Mundo Novo & Caturra developed in Brazil in the 40's.
    Obata is a cross between Hibrido De Timor & Villa Sarchi, developed in Brail in the early 2000’s & released in Costa Rocs in 2014
