costa rica las lajas black honey is a caturra varietal coffee from costa rica, roasted by bean & bean queens. the black honey process means the coffee cherry pulp is mostly left on during drying, which drives a noticeably sweet, fruit-forward cup. expect tropical fruit alongside honey and honeycomb flavors, with a sticky sweetness that carries through to the finish. because honey-processed coffees sit between washed and natural in body and clarity, this one brews well as a pour-over to keep the fruit detail clear, or as a french press if you want the fuller, syrupy body to come forward.
