costa rica coffee
by pioneer coffee roasters · canton, usa
you'll taste stone fruit before peach. this is costa rica las lajas black honey, a honey costa rica from pioneer coffee roasters.
it leads with stone fruit and peach, then settles into honey and honeycomb sweetness. the black honey process amplifies that sweetness compared to a washed costa rican coffee.
it's grown in costa rica using the caturra varietal and processed as a black honey, meaning most of the fruit mucilage is left on the bean while it dries, adding body and sweetness to the final cup.
a pour-over or filter method works well here, letting the stone fruit and honey notes come through clearly. keep water temperature around 93°c and avoid over-extraction, which can dull the softer peach and honeycomb characteristics.
