Tasting NotesTasting notesThe flavors a roaster perceives in the cup — 'jasmine, apricot, black tea'. Descriptive associations, not ingredients: nothing is added to the coffee.: Dark chocolate, cherry, & creamy Region: Central Valley Varietal: BourbonBourbonOne of the two foundational arabica varieties (with Typica), named after Île Bourbon (Réunion). Sweet, balanced, caramel-leaning; parent of countless modern cultivars. Process: NaturalNatural processThe whole cherry is dried with the fruit still on the seed. Gives heavier body and big fruit flavors — think berries and wine — sometimes with a fermenty edge. Recipes: Espresso: 1:2.5 | Filter: 1:17 About: Diego Guardia is the new generation of coffee producer and exporter. When he’s not on the farm, you will see Diego ripping his finest cut-backs in the surf and strumming the guitar. Costa Rica is as well known for its fine speciality coffees, as it is for amazing warm water breaks. Hacienda Sonora has seen many changes throughout its 100 years of operation. Owned and operated by Alberto (father) and Diego Guardia in the region of Central Valley, the estate initially cultivated sugar cane as its major crop and source of income. Thanks to Alberto and Diego, Sonora has since been reinvigorated with a direction; speciality coffee. Roasting days: Proud Mary roast Monday-Friday during normal business hours.
