The longer a coffee bean is roasted, the more robust the flavor of the
coffee. It's best to buy small quantities of coffee to ensure the
freshest flavor.
We harvest the highest quality gourmet coffee by working closely with
the growers, who then work collectively with the farmers to obtain a
quality price and a better yield from their farms.
Our coffee is handpicked and traditionally de-pulped. Naturally
fermented in the mountain water, it is later sun dried in large
tunnels.
We only use green coffee beans and then request for the beans to be
roasted so the roasting process takes just
a matter of days as opposed to having the beans sit in the warehouse
until being exported. This insures
our coffees are the freshest they can be...
There are two types of coffee variations: one is traditional (Arabica)
and the other more robust (Robusta). As a whole, Arabica beans are
superior in quality to Robusta beans. However, not all Robusta beans
are less expensive. Some higher quality Robusta beans are what compose
Jamaican Blue or Hawaiian Kona, both commanding a higher coffee price.
Karoma is very much a part of Las Lagunas' community, sponsoring the
local school and church and also lobbying for health programs, better roads,
and government aid.
