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.

Campbell & Syme describe this coffee as fruity, floral. 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.
