Producers Tega and Tula maintain the highest standards, while operating in a misty and cool forest, they enjoy an average rainfall of 1.6m per year and average temperatures of 13-25 degrees Celsius. Sitting between 1500-2000 MASL, this region produces coffee that is world renowned for its complex and rich flavours.
