About this Coffee
Grown in Costa Rica’s West Valley, this Yellow Honey lot reflects one of the country’s most respected coffee-growing areas, where high-altitude farms, volcanic soils, and steady mountain climate help produce clean, carefully developed coffees. The “yellow honey” process also speaks to the producer’s attention to detail, highlighting the origin’s microlot craftsmanship and Costa Rica’s long-standing reputation for quality-focused, specialty coffee production.
Flavor Profile
Cupping notes: This coffee would likely lean toward clean sweetness and layered fruit, with a honey-like profile, gentle caramel or toffee, and soft stone-fruit or plum character typical of Costa Rica’s yellow honey lots. Because it comes from the West Valley, you can also expect a cup that is balanced and refined, with good clarity rather than heavy intensity.
Suggested roast level: Medium
