As third-generation coffee producers, their family has cultivated coffee since the 1950s, but their inheritance wasn\u2019t just land; it was a mission.<\/p>\n<p>Oscar\u2019s father instilled in them a guiding belief: coffee should be part of a living, breathing ecosystem. The land must be nourished from the soil up, with cover crops, biodiversity, and a holistic approach to farming. This philosophy continues to shape everything they do.<\/p>\n<p>Las Lajas is also renowned far beyond Costa Rica for their role in transforming how coffee is processed. From pioneering honey processing techniques to mastering naturals, Francisca and Oscar have continually adapted and innovated in response to changing conditions, be it climate, market demand, or flavor potential. Their dedication to both tradition and evolution is evident in the coffees they produce.<!-- notionvc: 2882cfde-9578-4d67-b8b7-1e1363ce7a3c --><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=&#8221;off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_video src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2_j5anHNInk&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Video \u2013 Tales from the Source&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text &#8211; Tales from the Source&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_5_font=&#8221;Raleway|500|||||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h5>Bonus Feature<\/h5>\n<h3><strong>Tales from the Source: The Story of Andrew Miller and Las Lajas<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Released with the first episode, this special video zooms out to tell a parallel story: one of connection, trust, and shared vision.<\/p>\n<p>In <em>Tales from the Source<\/em>, Andrew Miller, founder of Cafe Imports, reflects on his first visit to Las Lajas in 2010 and his first meeting with Francisca and Oscar.
