Costa Rican Premium Gesha – Valle Central – Fabio Ruiz – Black Honey

11 pounds available after the sampler promo, get it while the getting is good.
Regular Price $15.99/lb

Very sweet and super clean with a little fuller body for this type of bean. First notes to hit are the winy, fruity, and floral aspects of the cup – very strong at the lighter roasts and show what a Geisha strain can bring to the table. There is a hint of balance with a little chocolaty note at the lighter roast points but if you roast it light, make sure you like the more acidic fruity tones coffee can bring.  Medium roasts brought great balance with that wonderful classic Costa chocolaty factor, a bit less acidic, medium roasts will be a cup anyone would love to drink but retains the honey processed fruit forward note. Darker roasts were also surprising pleasant but much harder to tell the Geisha roots. The fruity tones still pop out of a more bakers chocolate undertone right at second crack, a little smokiness in the finish is just what some will be looking for.

It’s pretty special when a cooperative with amazing infrastructure built on collective efforts also has the ability to celebrate individuals within the organization. We are pleased to have a special Black Honey processed micro-lot cultivated by Fabio Ruiz Vargas and processed by CoopeVictoria.

With more than 2,900 producer-members in the province of Alajuela, CoopeVictoria has built a state-of-the-art processing facility with certifications in quality and environmental management from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) utilizes recycled water and the mechanical dryers (guardiolas) recirculate airflow to maximize furnace efficiency.

The facility also has an organic fertilizer production plant and a water treatment plant. In addition to exporting coffee, CoopeVictoria produces sugar, operates a gas station and a hardware store, and sells roasted coffee for national consumption. Cooperative members have access to low interest loans and healthcare for their families at the cooperative run health center. But behind all this amazing infrastructure there are individuals like Fabio who, as an agronomist, loves pouring all of his attention into his farm, knowing that he can leave the post-harvest work in the care of CoopeVictoria.

Tasting Notes:
Very sweet and super clean with a little fuller body for this type of bean. First notes to hit are the winy, fruity, and floral aspects of the cup – very strong at the lighter roasts and show what a Geisha strain can bring to the table. There is a hint of balance with a little chocolaty note at the lighter roast points but if you roast it light, make sure you like the more acidic fruity tones coffee can bring.  Medium roasts brought great balance with that wonderful classic Costa chocolaty factor, a bit less acidic, medium roasts will be a cup anyone would love to drink but retains the honey processed fruit forward note. Darker roasts were also surprising pleasant but much harder to tell the Geisha roots. The fruity tones still pop out of a more bakers chocolate undertone right at second crack, a little smokiness in the finish is just what some will be looking for.

Roasting Notes:
Luckily with this bean we couldn’t find a roast we didn’t like. The lighter roasts really bring the more unique Geisha tones to the table which is what you are partially paying for in these beans but the medium and dark roast cups were just as tasty. If roasting pretty light, good to slow down the roast a bit to get more complexity out of the acidic notes.
