costa rica + panama coffee
by rosso coffee roasters · calgary, canada
you'll taste stone fruit before peach. this is janson los alpes natural geisha 1021 100g, a natural costa rica + panama from rosso coffee roasters.
it leads with stone fruit and peach, backed by jasmine and floral notes. the natural process tends to make fruit character more pronounced and the geisha variety adds a distinct floral lift.
it is a geisha variety coffee grown in the volcán region, sourced from costa rica and panama, and processed using the natural method, meaning the whole cherry is dried before the bean is extracted.
a pour over or aeropress with filtered water suits this coffee well, as both methods preserve the clarity needed to highlight its floral and stone fruit character. avoid coarse, high-agitation brews that can dull delicate aromatics.
the smell hits you before you even reach the door on centre street north. that's the thing about rosso coffee roasters, they're serious about the roast, and it shows in every cup they pull. with 765 google reviews sitting at 4.4 stars, this isn't just neighborhood loyalty talking. it's earned respect. walk in on any tuesday morning and you'll see the same faces. the regular who orders a cortado without saying a word. the student camping out with textbooks and a pour-over that's gone cold. they keep coming back because rosso doesn't cut corners. the beans are roasted with intention, not just to caffeinate the masses rushing to downtown offices. this is what independent coffee should be. thoughtful, consistent, unapologetically focused on the cup rather than the instagram moment. calgary's coffee scene needs more places like this.
