Costa Rica - Santa Rosa 1900 "Washed Red Catuai" 250g

by Koppi

Flavour notes: Raspberries, Pomegranate, caramel This Red Catuai is processed as a “reposado” - the coffee cherries are rested in big plastic barrels for 48 hours before being processed as white honey. This leaves us with a coffee that taste absolutely incredible. Packed with notes of cherries, orange, raspberries and milk chocolate and yet so elegant.
