Dense coffee zone around volcanic chain.

Mix of smallholders and medium estates.

Altitudes vary widely → region name alone is insufficient.

Washed dominates, with honey/natural increasingly common.

Most producers deliver cherry to large beneficios.

Drying is generally feasible, but throughput pressure is constant at peak harvest.
