The Story
Marvin Robles is a smallholder coffee producer who lives and farms coffee outside of Frailes, a small town in Costa Rica’s renowned Tarrazú region. Marvin’s two acre farm is named Juan Pablo, after his son. The surrounding hillsides are dotted with family-owned coffee farms growing alongside lush, high-altitude forest.
In 2009, after many years of sending his coffee cherry to the local cooperative to be mixed in with hundreds of other coffees, Marvin decided to start milling coffee cherry on his own. As an artisan, Marvin is focused on care and commitment to quality. We are proud to purchase Marvin’s entire production.
