Single OriginSingle originCoffee from one traceable place — a country at the loosest, a single farm or lot at the strictest — rather than a blend of sources./Direct Trade Tasting NotesTasting notesThe flavors a roaster perceives in the cup — 'jasmine, apricot, black tea'. Descriptive associations, not ingredients: nothing is added to the coffee.: Sugar cookies, orange and honeyHoney processThe skin is removed but some sticky fruit mucilage is left on during drying. Lands between washed and natural: more sweetness and body than washed, cleaner than natural. This honey processed Costa Rican coffee comes direct to us from our friends and direct trade partners at Café con Amor Farm. Café con Amor is a high-altitude farm in the mountains of Naranjo, Costa Rica. The volcanic soil here is ideal for growing specialty varieties of coffee. Their coffee is grown under the shade of orange, mango, lemon, guayaba and sweet plantain trees. These tropical trees add rich organic material that transfers to the aroma, complexity and rich notes of this specialty coffee. This all results in a clean cup with a smooth honey sweetness, citrus tones, and balanced acidityAcidityThe bright, lively, fruit-like sensation in coffee — praise, not a flaw. Citric sparkle, malic apple-crispness, tartaric wine notes; light roasts preserve more of it.. This coffee quickly became one of our favorites with its incredibly smooth, silky mouthfeelBodyThe weight and texture of coffee in the mouth, from tea-like and delicate to syrupy and heavy. Driven by process, roast, variety, and brew method. and great balanced flavors of orange and milk chocolate.
