Sonora Coffee is located at the base of Costa Rica’s Poás Volcano. For over 50 years, three generations of farmers have stewarded this land with a deep commitment to conservation and sustainability, overseeing every step of production with environmental responsibility at the core.

The combination of volcanic soil, high elevation, and a unique microclimate—paired with meticulous farming—produces coffees that are both distinctive and expressive. Hacienda Sonora prioritizes natural and honey processing methods across all lots, significantly reducing water usage compared to traditional washed coffees. The entire operation runs on 100% renewable energy generated on-site, lowering its environmental impact and even providing electricity to members of the farm community.

This shade-grown estate is among Costa Rica’s most innovative. Featuring the rust-resistant Sarchimor hybrid, naturally processed, the coffee transforms a resilient workhorse variety into a vibrant, tropical, and beautifully layered cup—proof that sustainability and excellence go hand in hand.
