What Paso Paso says about this coffee
A Symphony of Nature and Craftsmanship – Roble Negro
Roble Negro pays tribute to the majestic Black Oaks native to its region, trees that live for over 200 years and symbolize harmony with nature. This philosophy drives the farm’s mission: creating a sustainable symbiosis between coffee production and environmental preservation.
High-Altitude Tarrazú Terroir: Grown at an exceptional altitude of 1,850 MASL in Cedral Alto, Costa Rica, where cool night temperatures drop as low as 10°C to slow cherry maturation.

A further 2 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
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.
