About This Coffee

A single origin coffee from Finca Aquiares, located on the slopes of the Turrialba volcano in Costa Rica's Turrialba region at 1,200 masl. This is the Centroamericano H1 variety — a hybrid cross between Sarchimor T-5296 and Rume Sudan — processed using the Red Honey method, which retains sweet mucilage on the bean during drying. Tasting notes include blood orange, cashew, and flat peach. The cup features a silky body, very present sweetness, and mild acidity. Finca Aquiares, founded in 1890, is the largest coffee farm in Costa Rica.

Kaffeekirsche

Kaffeekirsche was founded in 2014 in Berlin Kreuzberg near Adalbertsrasse, beginning a journey that has seen the roastery move and expand multiple times as demand grew. In 2017 the operation relocated to Böckhstrasse alongside a new cafe and bakery, and by February 2022 the main roastery had settled in Tempelhof with an attached cafe, bringing the total to three Berlin locations. All coffee is drum roasted daily, with a focus on single origin Arabica beans sourced from origins including Colombia, where Pink Bourbon from the Cauca region is among the standout lots. Their omni roast philosophy means each coffee is developed to perform across both espresso and filter brewing methods. Signature roasts like the Dark Side Espresso and Gran Galope, known for its full body and lingering sweetness, showcase the range and ambition of their roasting program.
