Cerro San Luis Micromill is a family business run by two siblings Alexander and Magali Delgado and their spouses, who own and operate two farms and a small mill. The family's farms are adjacent to one another, but the plots are given different names for lot separation purposes. This lot is from Finca Alquimia.
This coffee is "honey" processed in a style borrowed from Brazil but perfected in Costa Rica. Ripe cherry is mechanically de-pulped then anaerobically fermented, before the remaining sticky seeds are slowly sun-dried.
Please note we only hold limited stock of these products, but we aim to roast at least two times a week (T&Cs apply)
How to brew
We normally lean toward filter brewing for the producer series as the method highlights the more complex and delicate flavours in lighter roasted coffee. As always, we default to the industry standard of 60g of coffee per litre of water as a starting point.
For espresso try a 1:2.5 brew ratio and shot times of around 24-30 seconds.
Tasting notes
Crisp, crumble sugar-crust yields to a spoon and leaves a sticky, scarlet scar. Tart and sweet, crunchy and soft, the bowl is soon licked clean.
