I was startled by his appearance when I got the bean. The shape of the raw beans is very beautiful, the body is quite full, and the size and defect rate can be compared with the beans from Sigri in Papua New Guinea and the Peak Farm in Australia. Santa Cruz still grows coffee varieties brought by French agronomists in 1875, so the coffee is more than 130 years old. And these old coffee trees have now become one of the special symbols of Santa Cruz coffee. The laws of the Galapagos Islands prohibit the use of chemicals and pesticides on the island, so the Santa Cruz estate produces almost all of the Galapagos Islands coffee in the organic coffee market from the third largest island of the Galapagos Islands in San Crist ó bal Island. Santa Cruz Manor Coffee, as its name implies, comes from the second largest island, Santa Cruz (Santa Cruz Island). Santa Cruz Island is located in the center of the Galapagos Islands. It is said that this geographical location will form a unique microclimate, so some people think that Santa Cruz Island coffee is sweeter and more fragrant than other Galapagos Islands coffee.
