Costa Rica - Sonora Honey "Red Gold"

This Costa Rican coffee from the Central Valley region has varietals of Red Catuai, Yellow Catuai, Venecia, Bourbon, Geisha, Villalobos and Villa Sarchi. Grown at an altitude of 1200 -1300m, it offers fruity, sweet and delicate notes with a winey acidity. The Honey Natural is a blend of 50 percent black-honey processed coffee and 50 percent natural-processed coffee. Black honey process means that those coffee beans were processed with 100 percent of the mucilage still intact. Honey Natural was developed as an espresso base or single-origin espresso and is nicknamed "red gold" for the velvety crema it produces.
