What the roaster says about where it came from
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.
Where each fact came from
Variety
“The Centroamericano variety is a hybrid of the Sarchimor T-5296 and a wild Rume Sudan variety.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
Farm
“Diego has launched a fresh approach to speciality coffee after taking over Aquiares Estate from his father, Alfonso.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
Country of origin
“The estate is a known trailblazer among speciality coffee producers in Costa Rica and throughout Central America, and Diego has explored many new potentials for the farm through excellent agricultural management, new coffee varieties, and further experimental processes.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
Processing
“During the honey process, the coffee pulp (cherry skin) is removed, but the mucilage is kept intact on the coffee bean, leading to further sugar absorption in the coffee beans throughout the drying stage.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
