Our coffees grow in the shade of native trees. By choosing shade-grown coffee, we help protect the forests that Costa Rica's wildlife calls home.
Capuchin Monkey (Mono carablanca)
One of the smartest monkeys in the Americas. It uses stones as tools to crack nuts and rubs plants on its fur to keep insects away.
Found with Manural Espresso →Red-eyed Tree Frog (Rana calzonuda)
By day it sleeps hidden on a leaf. When a predator comes close, it flashes its bright red eyes to startle it and escape.
Found with Fruity Espresso →Sloth (Perezoso)
Not as sleepy as its reputation, but so slow that algae grows in its fur, keeping it hidden in the canopy.
Found with Golden Honey Espresso →Mangrove Hummingbird (Colibrí de manglar)
Found only in Costa Rica, it lives in the Pacific mangroves and is one of the country's most endangered birds.
Found with Sweet Caramel →Golden-hooded Tanager (Siete colores)
Called "seven colors" for its golden hood, turquoise wings and black mask. It often travels in pairs, feeding on fruit.
