Background: 

The Beni Geisha is a micro-lot cultivated by Beni, the gentleman responsible for producing this exceptional variety.The coffee is grown about 5km west of Finca Hartmann and very close to the border with Costa Rica. The coffee is distinguished by its production at high altitude in a drier microclimate influenced by moderate winds. Beni employs people from the indigenous NOBES tribes to help with production of the Beni Geisha, and the coffee is cultivated under shade without the use of pesticides. Cleaning is done by hand and processed with traditional handcrafted processes in fermentation and drying.

 Finca Hartmann is a family enterprise, in the 3rd generation and located in Santa Clara, Renacimiento. It consists of 2 farms – Santa Clara Finca Hartmann and Ojo de Agua, located between 1.300 and 2.000 mts above sea level with nearly 100has of forest reserves bordering on the Parque Nacional de La Amistad.
