FOR THE COFFEE

Finca Casa de Piedra is one of two farms operated by Café Directo, a family-run business founded in 2013 by father-daughter team Gerardo and Jennifer Arias. With over 30 years of combined experience in producing and processing specialty coffees, the duo has made it their mission to deliver some of the finest microlots from the famed Tarrazú region of Costa Rica.

Café Directo’s philosophy is grounded in ethical and sustainable practices, with a strong focus on environmental harmony and contributing to the development of local communities through fair trade values.

At Casa de Piedra, a wide range of processing techniques are employed - including natural, red, yellow, and black honey, as well as semi-washed, anaerobic, and fully washed methods - to bring out the unique characteristics of each lot.

Thanks to the farm’s rich volcanic soil, distinct microclimate, and elevations reaching 1,800 meters above sea level, varieties such as Catuai, Pacamara, and Geisha thrive here, producing coffees that are as expressive as they are memorable.

A true showcase of Tarrazú terroir, craftsmanship, and a dedication to excellence in every cup.
