This coffee is from Tirra Estate in the Los Santos region of Tarrazú, Costa Rica, grown at 1,400-1,500 meters altitude. It is a Yellow Honey processed coffee made from Caturra and Catuai varieties. The light roast brings out tasting notes of dates, clementine, banana, honey, and brown sugar. The honey process leaves a layer of sticky mucilage intact during drying, developing layered sweetness and fruit-forward complexity.
Steel Oak Coffee was founded in 2016 by Carl and Michele Dupper in Ormond Beach, Florida, with a focus on small batch specialty grade coffee. The roastery produces clean, natural flavors without additives, letting the bean speak for itself across a rotating selection of origins from Ethiopia, Kenya, Nicaragua, Brazil, Guatemala, and Colombia. Steel Oak sources ethically and seasonally, with full traceability that allows the Duppers to share the producer stories and farming practices behind every bag. Visitors to the roastery can watch the process firsthand, experiencing a working small batch operation up close.
