Next up in our COE season is this award-winning Costa Rican geisha from Santa Teresa. This coffee won #7 in the "Traditional Washed" category in this year's Costa Rican Cup of Excellence. Despite being a washed process, this coffee tastes like a clean natural, with purple fruit flavors of blueberry, cherry, and plum. 

Also available green for home roasters!

Roger grew up working on his father’s coffee farm and at 15 he began his own plantation. After years of hard work expanding his farms, he founded the Santa Teresa mill in the year 2000, handling varieties such as geisha, sudan rume, pacamara, typica, SL-28, and more. Santa Teresa is a broad, regional effort— families from Panama pick the cherries, and families from Costa Rica and Nicaragua tend the farm.

Santa Teresa sits at 2000 meters, allowing for cool nights that slow the fermentation and drying of the cherry. This award-winning lot was picked ripe and rested in whole cherry for two nights. It was then depulped, washed, and rested again before a final
6 hour fresh water soak and transfer to drying beds.

This is our first of hopefully many offerings of Roger’s coffees!
