This coffee is a single-origin offering from the Tirra Estate, located in the Los Santos microclimate of the Tarrazú region in Costa Rica. Grown at an altitude of 1,400–1,500 meters, this lot consists of Caturra and Catuai varieties. It is processed using the yellow honey method, which retains a layer of fruit mucilage during drying. The resulting medium-dark roast features a flavor profile characterized by notes of black cherry, cola, brown sugar, and mandarin, offering a sweet and balanced cup with significant body.
Steel Oak Coffee was founded in 2016 by Carl and Michele Dupper in Ormond Beach, Florida, with a focus on small batch specialty grade coffee. The roastery produces clean, natural flavors without additives, letting the bean speak for itself across a rotating selection of origins from Ethiopia, Kenya, Nicaragua, Brazil, Guatemala, and Colombia. Steel Oak sources ethically and seasonally, with full traceability that allows the Duppers to share the producer stories and farming practices behind every bag. Visitors to the roastery can watch the process firsthand, experiencing a working small batch operation up close.
