el venado is a honey-processed coffee from the west valley region of costa rica, roasted by pique coffee. it carries sl-28, caturra, and bourbon varietals, a lineup that tends toward clean sweetness and balanced body. the honey process, where some fruit mucilage is left on the bean during drying, pulls through in the cup as honey, honeycomb, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate. it suits filter brewing well, where those layered sweetnesses read clearly, though a longer espresso ratio can also highlight the chocolate depth without flattening the honeyed top notes.
