This coffee is a single-origin offering from Finca El Centro, located in the Central Valley region of Costa Rica at 1600 meters altitude. The coffee is of the Villa Sarchi variety and is processed using the natural method, where cherries are sun-dried to enhance fruit intensity. The flavor profile features notes of strawberry, brown sugar, and hazelnut, offering a sweet and balanced cup with a fruit-forward character.
