Costa Rica - Santa Marta (Filter Roast)

Tasting Notes - Upfront orange peel zest, moving into silky smooth herbal tea flavour that coats the mouth. Finishing with a well rounded brown sugar sweetness.

Roasters thoughts: "Costa Rican coffees are beginning to be a highlight of our year when it comes to fresh crops. When we were selecting this coffee, this cup was just sitting there, super elegant and kicking goals. It's not a wild crazy filter brew but tastes exceptional, it's great tasting wild coffees but I can't drink them everyday, they're a treat for me. This is my go-to style of filter."

 

 

The Santa Marta farm, previously known as Finca Copey de Dota, is dedicated to producing exceptional coffee on the international specialty market. When the decision was made to start growing coffee, careful consideration was given to which crops would thrive in each area of the farm. The land was thoughtfully divided into different sections, with each plot being carefully managed using environmentally friendly practices and quality controls. To ensure optimal growth and development, the soil and foliage of each lot are analyzed and specific nutrients are added as needed. In addition, a nursery was established to provide shade for the coffee plants, with a variety of trees such as Cuajiniquil, Arrayan, Manzanita, Candelillo, and Poro being planted.

 

 

Process:

The coffee cherries are hand-picked at the peak of ripeness, thus ensuring they have the best possible sweetness and flavour prior processing.

After being sorted in a floatation tank, the cherries are very slowly dried on African raised beds.
