Costa Rica Las Palomas Honey Preparation

Summary

A single origin coffee from Las Palomas farm, owned by Don Jorge Monge Garbanzo near Tarbaca in the San Jose province of Costa Rica. Grown from Bourbon, Caturra, Catuai, San Ramon and Typica varietals. The honey preparation method leaves 70% of the cherry flesh on the parchment beans during sun drying, resulting in a fruity and robust flavour with apricot and chocolate notes and a brisk, pleasant acidity. Roasted a shade darker than medium and recommended for cafetiere brewing.
