Tasting Notes
Smooth, sweet, and balanced. This lot from Costa Rica is a very pleasant cup. Every note we pulled pointed to the smoothness that we saw in the cup in all facets. Blackberry sweetness and milk chocolate paired with a mouthfeel that reminded us of nut butter all come together for a delicious coffee.
Community Coffees, Coffee Production
The goal with Community Coffees is to highlight a hyperlocal terroir and/or a segment of a cooperative or growers’ group that is interested in differentiation. These coffees are purchased at a small premium to cover the extra cost of production and to provide a premium that will be used for a social initiative of the group’s desire. These lots are semi-traceable to the community itself.
Tarrazú is Costa Rica’s most productive and arguably famous coffee region. Producers at high elevations have become known for coffees with bright and crisp acidities with flavors of apricot and orange.
