The Los Grimones Estate farm was founded in 1975 by Juan Sosa García and his wife Josefa Alamo Sosa. Since then, the family tradition has happily continued with their son Juan Sosa Alamo taking over management of the farm in 2004, and he is now assisted by his own two daughters. Coffee farming has become a Sosa family tradition and Sea Island are proud to offer yet another example of the exquisite artisanal estate coffee production for which the Canary Islands has become famous.
Coffee was first introduced to the Canary Islands back in 1788 when the first coffee trees arrived in the ‘La Orotava Acclimatization Garden’ in Tenerife. The garden was built by King Carlos III of Spain to take advantage of the Canary Islands’ warm climate to grow exotic plants and seeds from America and Asia.
Today, coffee is still produced in extremely small amounts on the islands of Tenerife, La Palma, El Hierro, and Gran Canaria by family run estates. Very little coffee leaves the islands, with most of it consumed by the producing families or sold to local roasters and coffee shops.
