Costa Rica Don Oscar
Beneficio Don Oscar is named after its founder, Mr. Oscar, who unfortunately is no longer alive. The processing plant and the farm are run by his two sons, Alejandro and Horacio. The farm covers an area of 38 hectares and produces 81 tons of green coffee per year. During the harvest (December - March), up to 90 people work on the farm (mainly pickers from Panama), and outside the harvest, 8 permanent employees, including the owners.

Gentle process
This is our first ever coffee that we purchased directly from producers with whom we have been working for a long time, imported it to the Czech Republic ourselves and then had it decaffeinated in Germany using the gentle EA (ethyl acetate) method.
This method, also called "Sugar Cane Decaf", uses sugar cane extract, which binds caffeine. We prefer this process to others mainly because it can change the taste of the coffee in a positive way rather than a negative way.
