About the style
Specialty coffee is graded on cup quality and traceable to a single origin. Honey processing leaves some sticky fruit on the bean while it dries — a sweet middle path between washed clarity and natural fruit. This one is a medium roast from Costa Rica.
How to serve
Grind fresh and brew around a 1:16 ratio at 92–96°C; aim for a 2.5–3.5 minute filter brew. Lighter roasts suit pour-over; darker roasts shine as espresso.
Pairs with
Balanced cups suit almond croissants, shortbread, and morning toast.
