Cloud Forest Estate Coffee is a Canadian Limited Partnership developed by Quadrant Pacific Capital Corp. to invest in the Specialty Coffee industry in Costa Rica.  The Specialty Coffee market is the fastest growing segment of the coffee industry today.   The U.S. specialty coffee industry is responsible for approximately 17% of the total U.S. green coffee imports but its $7.8 billion sales represents over 40% of the $18.5 billion U.S. coffee market.   In a report published by the "The Specialty Coffee Association of America" and the World Bank, the growth of sales of Specialty Coffee has increased by 27% from 2001 to 2003.

Our first harvest in 2002 was very small but results were stupendous.  Our beans ranked third overall in the region for quality as established by an international cast of Coffee specialists from Japan, Europe and the U.S.  The 2005 harvest produced almost 50,000 pounds of coffee ready for roasting.

Small wonder since the senior manager in charge of operations for Cloud Forest is the former Director of Research for the internationally renowned Coffee Research Institute of Costa Rica,  ICafe.
