Danilo Salazar has been farming coffee for over fifty years in Costa Rica. He grows not only coffee, but also bananas, plantains, and peaches. Danilo is also part of the organization Cafe de Altura de San Ramon which helps over 500 farmers with the knowledge and resources they need to sell their coffees at premium prices. Since coffee in Costa Rica isn’t fully washed, there is a bit more fruit in the cup, especially in this unique coffee. The reason is, in Costa Rica, freshwater is preserved and the government keeps farmers from using too much water to fully wash their coffee. In a normal washed coffee, coffee is fermented in large tanks to remove the mucilage, but in Costa Rica, they use a machine that removes the pulp and mucilage simultaneously called a demuciladora.
