This coffee is produced by the Ureña family at the Café Rivense farm in the Chirripó micro-region of Costa Rica. Grown at an altitude of 1300-1550 meters, this Red Catuai variety is processed using the honey method. The flavor profile features the juiciness of nectarine and ripe cherry, complemented by the sweetness of dark sugar and a well-balanced, mild acidity. The farm emphasizes sustainable agriculture, including the use of shade trees and careful soil management, ensuring high quality and traceability.
Good Life Coffee Roasters grew from a Helsinki café venture that Lauri Pipinen opened in 2012, eventually establishing the dedicated roastery in 2014. Lauri, a three time Finnish barista champion, brings championship pedigree to the operation and has competed in the World Coffee Championships representing Finland. The roastery's philosophy is straightforward and unpretentious: source and roast coffee that is fresh, tasty, and easy to drink. Over the years, the roastery has evolved from a small neighborhood café into an award-winning operation, earning the title of Best Roaster at the Nordic Coffee Fest in 2024.
