costa rica coffee
by opus coffee - airstream · gainesville, usa
you'll taste stone fruit before jasmine. this is costa rica kathia zamora, a honey costa rica from opus coffee - airstream.
this coffee leads with stone fruit and honeycomb sweetness, supported by jasmine and floral tones, finishing with a clean honey quality. the honey process adds a soft, fruit-forward sweetness that carries through the cup.
it's grown in the naranjo region of costa rica and processed using the honey method, meaning the coffee is dried with some of the fruit mucilage still on the bean. this contributes to its natural sweetness and slightly fuller body compared to a washed coffee.
as a light roast, it responds well to filter brewing methods like a pour over, which preserve the floral and stone fruit notes without masking them. use a moderate water temperature, around 90-93°c, to keep the cup bright and sweet.
