finca amalita micro-lot blend is a medium-roast coffee from cortez coffee roasters, sourced from the naranjo region of costa rica and processed using anaerobic fermentation. that oxygen-restricted ferment amplifies the fruit-forward character you'll find in the cup, lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest up front, with jasmine florals and a honey and honeycomb sweetness underneath. the medium roast keeps acidity lively without pushing into dark, roasty territory. it performs well through filter methods like pour-over or aeropress, where clarity and brightness are easy to dial in, but the honeyed body also holds up in a milk-based espresso drink.

How should I brew Finca Amalita Micro-Lot Blend?

as a medium roast with bright acidity and floral complexity, this coffee suits filter methods, pour-over or aeropress, which let the lemon, grapefruit, and jasmine notes come through cleanly. if pulling espresso, the honey sweetness rounds out well with milk.
