Mayra Solis

Vamay Coffee is the result of a family-run business from Costa Rica in the Santa María de Dota region, which is globally renowned for its high-quality coffee. The business was established in March 2020, in the midst of the COVID pandemic, and is led by Doña Mayra Solis, who, along with her son and two daughters, focuses on growing the finest quality coffee.

The coffee itself is grown on the Alto El Vapor farm, 90% of which is part of a protected reserve. The farmers also have springs that supply water to part of the community in Santa María de Dota. The El Vapor farm is situated at an elevation of between 1,800 and 2,100 meters above sea level.

Processing

This lot was harvested on February 6, 2024. The coffee cherries were processed on the same day as the harvest, then moved to raised beds in a layer about 5 cm thick, where they remained undisturbed for 3 days. On the fourth day, the process of hand drying under the sun began on the same raised beds, with the coffee being manually moved every 3 hours, 4 times a day, and dried for a total of 19 days.

Tubs

For our coffee, we use reusable tubes with a capacity of 250g. We would be glad if you also use them for other purposes (such as pencils, glasses, etc.), or stop by with the tube for more coffee.
