They wanted to improve quality and add value through their own efforts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the time of its establishment, there was no electricity, so they couldn't produce coffee of a quality that could be immediately sold, both technically and in terms of equipment. However, they honestly faced each challenge and improved quality, steadily gaining trust from many buyers. In addition to Catuai, which has been grown since the beginning of the farm, they are also cultivating new varieties such as Millenio (H10).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe sample it every year, but this year the quality was particularly good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariety \u003c\/strong\u003eCatuai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess \u003c\/strong\u003eWhite Honey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFarmer \u003c\/strong\u003eErnesto Jose Valverde Solis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion \u003c\/strong\u003eDota, Tarrazu, Costa Rica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude\u003c\/strong\u003e 1800 - 1900 masl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes \u003c\/strong\u003eRed Apple, Candy-like, Brown Sugar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight \u003c\/strong\u003e 200 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRoast Date \u003c\/b\u003e May 18, 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Townsfolk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49921764131093,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1151\/8820\/files\/townsfolkmay-26-3.jpg?v=1779468371","url":"https:\/\/knifetoronto.com\/products\/townsfolk-coffee-hermanos-valso-vara-blanca-costa-rica","provider":"KNIFE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
