Product Description
Malty and cereal
High in Costa Rica’s mountains, only a small selection of arabica coffee beans are soaked in the rainforest's hot spring water. These thermal waters are brought down to the wet mill – their temperature dropping from 70˙C down to 18˙C over 12 hours. The pulped coffee soaks in the mineral-rich water as it cools. The warmer water speeds up the fermentation and brings out this rare coffee’s finest characteristics – balanced and clean like no other, it shines in the cup with crystal clarity. The scarcity of this coffee comes from this rare process – no one else does it. It highlights the malty sweet cereal character of this unique craftsman’s coffee.
ORIGIN
A group of Nespresso AAA Sustainable Quality™ Program farmers selectively handpicked this coffee in Costa Rica’s central highlands. Imagine some of the country’s richest scenery – rainforests, volcanoes, hills and valleys lined with coffee plants and sugar cane – and Orosi’s mineral hot spring in one of the oldest communities in Costa Rica. They bring the thermal waters down to the coffee wet mill and use it once – and only once – to soak the pulped coffee for 12 hours.
ROASTING
We separate the single origin coffee in two batches for a split-roast. The first is roasted in medium temperatures to reach a medium-dark colour and develop sweet malty notes. The second is roasted slightly more intensively to reach a darker color and the desired intensity.
AROMATIC PROFILE
The one-of-a-kind process of fermentation in hot-spring waters brings about a remarkably balanced and clean taste in the cup. Master Origin Costa Rica is full-bodied but mellow. A malty sweet cereal note runs through it with crystal clarity.
