Aquiares, a coffee farm established by British farmers in the late 19th century, is one of the first estates to produce and export the now famous, high quality, costarrican coffee. For years we shipped directly to the most important world coffee centers. The finca has been owned and managed by three closely linked families for the last 32 years.

Hacienda Aquiares covers a total area of over 2,265 acres (917 hectares). Of these, 1,667 acres (675 hectares) are planted with coffee, mixed with native shade trees, while 381 acres (150 hectares) are protected natural forest. Hacienda Aquiares, the largest coffee farm in Costa Rica, lies on the beautiful and fertile slopes of the Turrialba Volcano, and is nestled between the Aquiares and Turrialba Rivers. Indeed, Aquiares is the indigenous word for “between rivers”. Another river, the Jesus Maria, flows through the farm, and at one point plunges over a 99-foot waterfall. Though one can easily imagine oneself in a remote and paradisiacal setting, Aquiares is just 4.5 miles north of the city of Turrialba in the province of Cartago, and is only 1 ½ hours by road from San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica.
