Costa Rica Don Sabino Micromill

Don Sabino Micromill is a father-son project that produces meticulous coffees in what seems like "simple" conditions but with incredible care and attention to detail.

Though the mill was established in 2011, Steven Vargas and his father have both been in coffee their whole lives. They own several plots of farmland in the area, where they grow a number of different varieties: Villa Sarchi is their primary crop, but they also grow Catuai, Caturra, Gesha, SL-28, and a small amount of Mokka. For several of the mill's early years, the Vargas drying beds were full of only Naturals. But lately, Steven is attempting a small amount of Honey coffee as well.
The Don Sabino micromill manages the farms El Apostol, El Orvo, El Llamarón, and La Roca.
