LATIN AMERICAN VARIETALS

"La Minita" Costa Rican coffee is an exceptional coffee from a prestigious estate in the Tarrazu region. It has a sweet and caramelly aroma and a noticeably pointed acidity, which makes for a lively bright taste. La Minita's rich complex flavor is enhanced by its medium full-body and a very clean, short finish. Hacienda La Minita was "green" long before being "green" was fashionable. As well as coffee in production and farm infrastructure, for many years La Minita has maintained a wildlife reserve of 200 acres of natural tropical forest. The health and well being of the people, animals and plants of the farm are very important. Fortunately, the climate and geography of the farm generally preempts the need to resort to pesticides. Herbicides are not used on the coffee and all of the weed control is done by hand with a machete.

The aroma of this outstanding Brazilian coffee is complex with sweet and spicy notes along with hints of sandalwood and soft nuts like Macadamia or Brazil nuts.

We love Brazil coffee for its intense sweetness and nuttiness. The Espirito Santo is a full-natural Brazil, which gives it a syrupy body and stunning fudge and maple aftertaste. As the cup cools, we notice something like marzipan stand out: almonds and sugar delight. The cup is super balanced on its own, but if you add a splash of cream, you'll taste something akin to pecan pie!
