About This Coffee

This coffee is from Aquiares Estate in Costa Rica, processed using the red honey method. It features the Mariana cultivar, an F1 hybrid created by crossing IAPAR 59 with a male-sterile Ethiopian landrace variety. This hybrid is notable for being propagated from seeds rather than tissue cloning. The coffee offers tasting notes reminiscent of a good Ethiopian natural process, with the variety being developed for increased climate change resistance.
