Bean Of The Month

COSTA RICA

Costa Rica is a relatively narrow country flanked on both sides by oceans, with long coast lines, but still reaches ideal coffee growing elevations.

A highly rated Costa Rican coffee, typically of the coffee plant varietal Caturra (Coffea arabica var. caturra) and sometimes Catuai, has a great body, often full, and a rich, robust flavor and crisp acidity.

In particular the best high-grown coffees of Costa Rica are distinguished, and notable for their good body and fruity and bright acidity with a clean and crisp taste.

Costa Rican coffees are generally believe to have some of the best coffee flavor profiles in south/central America, with high grown altitudes and a pleasant acidity, leading to great coffee reviews.

Aquiares Estate Centro Americano SHB- Some great bright creamy flavours with a hint of chocolate.
