This coffee is a microlot from the West Valley region of Costa Rica, grown at an altitude between 1200 and 1900 meters. It is an SL-28 variety processed using an innovative anaerobic honey method. The flavor profile features bright notes of lemon cream and stone fruit, complemented by the delicate florality of wildflower honey. It offers a smooth, balanced, and elegant cup with a creamy texture and refined acidity.
