This coffee is produced by the Mora family at the La Chirascuasa farm, located in the Parritilla sub-region of Los Santos, Costa Rica, at an altitude of 1700 meters. The coffee is a Catuaí variety processed using an anaerobic natural method, where cherries are fermented in tanks for 48-60 hours before being dried on raised beds for approximately 25 days. This meticulous process, combined with the farm's commitment to manual weed management and environmental care, results in a unique cup profile.
Founded by Curtis Zimmerman, a former international bicycle racer who discovered Nordic coffee culture during his travels through Europe, Presta Coffee emerged in 2012 with a coffee cart before establishing itself as a roastery in 2014. Operating using a 15kg Joper Roaster with the belief that "coffee is meant to be shared," Presta has served Tucson for over a decade with a philosophy rooted in integrity and passion.
