costa rica la pastora is a light roast from acoustic java roastery and tasting room, processed using the washed method, which strips the coffee cherry before drying and tends to produce clean, defined flavors. in the cup it delivers bright citrus across lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, with a backing note of cocoa that keeps things grounded. because it is a light roast, lower brew temperatures around 88 to 92 celsius and slower extraction methods, such as pour over or aeropress, help bring out the citrus clarity without tipping into bitterness. a good choice if you favor fruit-forward, clean coffees over heavier or sweeter profiles.
