Cozy Christmas - Jorge Vasquez Yellow Catuai Honey
History
We are delighted to present the first of two Christmas offerings this year, this one being the big crowd-pleaser, a coffee the whole family can enjoy, a Cozy Christmas!
This Yellow Catuai Honey lot comes from 1800 meters above sea level and offers an elegant, clean profile with notes of red fruit, brown sugar and nutty sweetness.
This is now our fifth year of working in partnership with the small collection of farmers that contribute to the Roble Negro Wet Mill in Costa Rica and we couldn't be happier with the results of our collaboration so far!
We’re now had the great opportunity to visit the Roble Negro wet mill on three separate occasions and even have some members of the team visit us here in Copenhagen in summer last year for World of Coffee. From this, we can clearly see that Jorge’s Roble Negro wet mill is one which has high quality standards and thoughtful sustainability practices.
The farm is filled with natural springs and freshwater sources, which the forested areas help protect and keep clean, and is situated at the transition between the Pacific side of the country and the Central Valley, spanning from 1750 to 2000 meters above sea level.
