Please note: Pre-ground coffee beans can quickly lose their freshness, resulting in a notable decrease in aroma and flavor. For this reason, we don’t recommend a grinding service. We strongly encourage our customers to grind their coffee beans just before use for the best experience.

Origin Story
Finca La Guaca is a farm and micromill founded by Régulo Ureña and Isabel Rojas in 2005 in the Brunca area of Costa Rica, within in a micro-region called Chirripó. Today, Rivense remains a family enterprise run with the participation of their children Ricardo, Mario, Esteban, Luis, and Tatiana. The Rivense operation consists of several lush, garden-like growing areas with distinct names, which deliver cherry to fully integrated wet and dry-milling facilities all within the farm itself, meaning that their coffee is fully prepared for export when it leaves the farm, ensuring both quality and tracability of its products.
Finca La Guaca coffees have been recognized for quality numerous times, with one lot notably placing 5th in Costa Rica’s Cup of Excellence competition in 2019.

How to Brew
We recommend starting with a 1:18 coffee-to-water ratio, which provides an excellent total extraction level and maximizes flavor pulled out of the ground coffee. For our single origin coffees we recommend a pour over method either on a Chemex, V60 or Kalita Wave.
