2010年、今もなお進み続ける気候変動は、ジョエル氏の農園にも暗い影を落とし始めていました。そんな中、コミュニティ内の農園がコーヒー豆の栽培を機に活力を取り戻していくのをみて、ジョエル氏はふたつの新たなる品種、[Catuai, Costa Rica95]を育てることを決めました。
ジョエル氏が育て始めたこのふたつの品種は、変わり始めた気候の中でもよく育ち、次第に彼やその家族は、コーヒーの栽培が農園再生への道であると考えるようになりました。
コーヒーが得意ではないジョエル氏でしたが、同時期にパナマのゲイシャ種に魅了されます。よく育つと聞くパナマゲイシャの種を求め、パナマまで足を運ぶほどでした。

2012年、ジョエル氏とその息子マティアスは、Copey, Quebradillas de Dotaと呼ばれる地ににゲイシャ種とティピカ種の木を植え始めました。しかし、コーヒーの実の販売は生産性や品質、価格などの風通しがあまり良くないことに気づきます。そこで誕生したのが自身でコーヒーの栽培からの実の加工まで全てのプロセスを一貫して行う農園、Acienda San Isidro Labradorでした。

Quebradillasは標高1900メートル、ドタ渓谷の頂点に位置する3ヘクタールほどの土壌です。良質なコーヒーを生産するのに最適な気候であり、その地で育ったコーヒー豆は、カップ・オブ・エクセレンスを何度も受賞しています。

The changing climate began to affect Joel’s farm, and after seeing the success his neighbors were having with coffee, he decided to try planting Catuai and Costa Rica 95 varieties in 2010. To their surprise, the seedlings began to grow well in this climate, and the family began to think that a little return to coffee would be a good thing. At the same time, they had heard that new varieties were coming on the scene, especially the Panamanian Geisha, which was growing unusually well. Joel felt he had to get this coffee and try it. He used to hate drinking coffee, but found that Geisha reacted differently. He used to get stomach aches when he drank coffee, but the Geisha did not affect his body in the same way and tasted much better. Joel became obsessed with coffee, especially Geisha, and traveled to Panama to collect seeds for his own Dota plantation.

Joel and his son Matias, who was studying mechanical engineering at the time, began planting thousands of Geisha and Tipica trees on their plantations in Copey and Quebradillas de Dota in 2012. As they planted, nurtured, and cared for the plantations, they realized that it really didn’t make sense to sell the fruit. Because they had to process the fruit themselves. The production of these varieties is very low, the price of the fruit is low, and quality and traceability can be lost when selling the fruit. In the meantime, Matthias saw many families in the community growing and processing fruit in their own wet mills. He then founded Acienda San Isidro Labrador during the first harvest of newly planted coffee in 2014/2015.

Quebradillas is a 3-hectare lot located at 1900 meters, the highest point in the Dota Valley, where the climate has perfect conditions to produce the best coffee. The estate is a multiple-time winner of the Cup of Excellence.
