Fazenda Santuario Sul spans 120 hectares, with 80 dedicated to coffee cultivation. The farm hosts 30 distinct varieties and cultivars, including the heirloom Ethiopian Rume Sudan. Notably, the Gesha and SL-28 varieties, which we are thrilled to present as microlots, are among the farm's offerings. The combination of heirloom varieties and the farm’s lofty elevation contributes to the unparalleled quality of its coffee.

The Kenyan variety in question is descended from a selection made by Scott Labs between 1935 and 1939, originating from a lineage of Tanganyika Drought Resistant I trees, potentially tracing its roots to Yemeni coffees.
