Comments

Producer

"Tres Rayas Coffee processes 80,000 kg of dry coffee during the main harvest (April–July) and 30,000 kg during the smaller harvest (September–November), with smaller quantities produced year-round due to varying altitudes. They offer washed and natural coffees and plan to expand to honeys and experimental processes with a new wet mill. Certified Organic, Fairtrade, Rainforest, and UTZ, the association repurposes coffee waste into compost for growers. Focused on generational renewal, they provide free cupping and production training to youth, adding 20 young producers to their diverse membership, which includes 48 women and 20 indigenous farmers."
