Bella Vista (Carlos Damian Rodríguez)
Profile image · identity and location not independently authenticated
This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
Carlos worked first as a day laborer and then as a vegetable farmer, saving enough to acquire several plots suitable for coffee. Bella Vista is one of those farms. After initially producing for the commercial market, advice from Benjamín Paz at Beneficio San Vicente encouraged Carlos to process coffee for specialty buyers.
Challenges
Carlos identifies high agricultural-input costs and scarce harvest labor as major challenges.
Innovations
For the documented washed lot, cherries are depulped each afternoon, fermented dry in tanks for 18 hours, rinsed seven times, then sun-dried in parabolic dryers for 15–20 days and hand-sorted for visible defects.
Farm profile visuals
Profile visuals may include editorial illustrations, not documentary photographs of this farm.
Published coffees linked to this farm
For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.
Research sources & verification
These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
