This coffee is a Geisha varietal from Costa Rica, grown in the Tarrazú region at 2,100 meters altitude in Santa María de Dota. It is processed using the Red Honey method at La Casona micro-mill by the Omar Calderón Family. The coffee offers tasting notes of nougat, graham cracker, and plum, creating a sweet, balanced, and smooth cup with warm flavors of graham crackers, marshmallow, and honey complemented by dark fruit notes.
