------------------

Each year, we buy a LOT of coffee from Costa Rica. We proudly showcase it as a single origin in our Santa Maria de Dota, and it features in our French New Wave and Sunflower Espresso blends as well. Our partner in Tarrazu, Hacienda La Minita, is known throughout the world for producing amazing coffees on their estate, and also for expertly processing coffee from neighboring farms as well.

One of those neighboring farmers we had the chance to spend time with earlier this year was Javier Umaña, who owns a beautiful farm in the community of Canet. Several members of Javier's extended family own parcels of farmland nearby. The land, which was used for cattle for years before coffee was planted, was divided amongst family members over the years. We met Javier's uncle, Don Rafa, last year on our first trip to the area, and were excited to visit this special area again.

Javier's farm is located at one of the highest elevations in the area, and produces incredible coffees. In addition to buying the cherries from the receiving station nearby for our washed process Santa Maria de Dota coffee, we arranged to buy a test microlot from Javier, that was to be processed naturally by the expert team at Hacienda La Minita. 

The resulting coffee is amazing, and easily one of our favorites of the entire year. In the cup, you'll taste raspberry, rich red velvet cake, and a watermelon candy-like juiciness. It's available exclusively on drip and pour over in our shops, and in limited quantities in retail bags next week.
