The Chacon’s are the pioneers for innovative processing in Costa Rica. They own and operate the Las Lajas Micromill, where they process coffee in a multitude of ways. They began experimenting with processing after an earthquake dismantled their access to power and electricity, forcing for innovation. The Chacon’s continue to lead the industry in Honey and Natural processing, creating unique profiles and complex cups of coffee. Their coffee is a seasonal staple for us, and we have been fortunate to meet with them year after year.

Costa Rica is one of the most recognized coffee countries in the world. They're known for growing many different cherry varieties and uses creative techniques in processing them. Many producers have their own micromill and equipment to do post harvest processing and experimenting, which leads to wild and unique coffees. Known for honey processed coffees with balanced body and florally sweet acidity, Costa continues to impress and innovate. The Central Valley is home to some of the most uniquely processed coffees we've tasted.
