Blind Assessment
Crisply sweet-tart, richly fruit-toned Costa Rica coffee produced by Oscar and Francisca Chacon and roasted by Durango Coffee in Durango, Colorado.
Notes
Produced by Oscar and Francisca Chacon from trees of the Caturra and Catuai varieties of Arabica; certified organically grown. Processed by the red honey method, meaning that most of the fruit flesh (“honey”) was allowed to adhere to the beans during drying. Located in southwestern Colorado, Durango Coffee lays claim to a rich coffee history that dates to 1986. Its motto is “Tough Town, Great Coffee.” Visit www.durangocoffee.com or call 800-748-2275 for more information.
Bottom Line
This honey-processed Costa Rica shows a berry throughline with undertones of rich florals and a resiny, amber-like note that contributes depth and complexity.
