DESCRIPTION

This is a familiar, but rare lot from Diego. It is a Washed Processed coffee, meaning he peels the cherry from the seed to ferment and dry- creating clean, nutty and buttery cups. Diego just recently renovated his mill. He added another level to the towering structure to use gravity to assist in the pulping process.

One of the most famous or recognized coffee growing regions, Costa Rica grows many different varieties and uses creative techniques in processing them. The prevalence of personal or cooperatively owned micro-mills has given producers the opportunity to experiment and develop many unique traditions for post harvest processing. Known for honey processed coffees with balanced body and florally sweet acidity, Costa continues to impress and innovate. 

Tarrazu, Costa Rica

One of the most famous or recognized coffee growing regions, Costa Rica grows many different varieties and uses creative techniques in processing them. The prevalence of personal or cooperatively owned micro-mills has given producers the opportunity to experiment and develop many unique traditions for post harvest processing. Known for honey processed coffees with balanced body and florally sweet acidity, Costa continues to impress and innovate. Tarrazu is one of our favorite places to visit. Not only do we get to spend time with the Abarca family, we've grown to love the "honey highway" as it bends around the steep mountainsides as we navigate the foggy terrain.

Washed

Coffee Cherries are peeled, and fruit content is fermented and washed away before being dried.

Classic and bold flavors balanced by rich and syrupy sweet notes
