About 1000Km from Ecuador in South America, the islands directly below the equator in the Pacific Ocean are also the islands of the famous GALAPAGOS penguins. This is the island of GALAPAGOS in Ecuador. The coffee produced here is rarely known.

The island is recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (USECO) as a natural park, and the law stipulates that no chemical fertilizers can be used here, so it is also recognized by the OCIA of the United States as the place where organic coffee is produced. The place where coffee is grown is an island called SAN CRISTOBAL, which is about 800m high. It is covered with thick fog and is covered with dense plants. The water gushing from the central crater forms an El Junko lake, and coffee is grown in this perfect natural ecology.

Bourbon seeds were brought into the area by Don Manual J Gobos in 1875 and began to be planted. At first, the planting area was only 200ha. At present, the planting area is only about 400 ha. SANCRISTOBAL's total annual production is only 1150 bags (45 kilograms each). The correct name of the farm is Hacienda El Cafetal San Cristabal.

Because the island is recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (USECO) as a natural park, and the law stipulates that no chemical fertilizers can be used here, it is also recognized by the OCIA of the United States as the production place of organic coffee.
