Casa de Piedra - Costa Rica

Nurturing the Costa Rican coffee tradition, Finca Casa de Piedra is one of two farms managed by Café Directo, a family venture initiated in 2013 by the father-daughter duo of Gerardo and Jennifer Arias. This farm is a dedicated hub for producing, processing, and promoting the finest Tarrazú coffees from Costa Rica, all while upholding a commitment to environmental harmony. Café Directo's core vision revolves around fostering societal development through ethical and fair trade practices.

With a combined experience of over three decades, the founders are well-versed in the art of producing and processing specialtiy micro-lot coffees. They master a diverse range of techniques, including naturals, yellow, red, and black honey, anaerobic, semi-washed, and fully washed processes. Their estate benefits from unique conditions, from the micro-climate to soil composition, and elevations reaching up to 1,800 meters above sea level. These factors create the ideal environment for a rich variety of coffee types to thrive, including Catuai, Pacamara, and Gesha, ensuring a symphony of flavors in every cup.
