Sweet and well rounded cup with notes of Blueberry Maple Syrup

Oscar and Francisca Chacón pioneered Honey and Natural process specialty coffee in Costa Rica. In 2005, they launched their own micromill to control quality and pricing. When a 2008 earthquake disrupted operations, Francisca innovated by building raised beds inspired by African methods, creating their acclaimed Natural lots. Their experimentation with Honey process coffees and modulating drying times for different flavor profiles has earned recognition from industry leaders.

This coffee from the Las Lajas microlot uses a Red Honey process. This is a process where the cherries must first be classified and then pulped and transferred to a covered patio where it is turned several times a day until the drying process is complete. The color of the parchment is a direct result of the depth of coffee when drying.
