How it sits among coffee from Costa Rica

How often roasters use each flavour family to describe coffee from Costa Rica: 258 of 395 carry notes. The dashed outline is the whole catalogue. These are the roasters’ own words, grouped — not our tasting, and not a measurement.

Podda & Wren describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, chocolate, nutty. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Costa Rica; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Costa Rica, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

Process

washed

Altitude

1200 m

Not stated

region, producer, variety, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

“Process: Washed Location: Turrialba, Cartago Province Altitude: 1200 MASL Flavour Notes: Dark Chocolate, Brown Sugar and Hazelnut Roast Level: Medium/Dark Varietal: F1 Hybrid Mix This iteration of Pinnacle is Rainforest Alliance (RFA) certified.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Carbon neutral

“This couldn't be a better match-up in our opinion; having roasted speciality coffee from Aquiares back in 2023, the quality control at this farm is exceptional to levels that not many can rival, amongst initiatives of being a Carbon Neutral farm and also holding Rainforest Alliance certification.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Farm

“We've switched up the origin this time after a blind cupping between options for sticking to Peruvian, or twisting to a new origin, and we've twisted - bringing forth a Costa Rican from the world famous Aquiares farm, specifically from producer Diego Robelo.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
