Costa Rica El Bosque Red Catuai

Process : Natural

Cupping Notes : Cocoa, Green Apple & Dulce de Leche

Coming from a small micro mill called Alto El Vapor, this coffee is the result of a Costa Rican family business in the rural area of Santa María de Dota, known internationally for its high-quality coffee. Alto El Vapor is a name that expresses the phenomenon of fog settling at high elevations. The name of the micro-mill was inspired by this natural phenomenon, as the overall altitude of the farm reaches up to 2,000 meters. Alto El Vapor is a small-scale project filled with the love and belief of families dedicated to social and environmental welfare. The coffee itself is grown on the Alto el Vapor farm, of which 90% is a natural conservation area. On the farm, coffee is located between 1,800 and 2,100 meters above sea level, resulting in Alto El Vapor being a high-altitude coffee. These factors, along with the traceability provided, ensure excellence, dedication, and love in every coffee bean the family harvests.

The coffee cherries are naturally processed leading to a rounded sweetness, creamy body and balanced cup. Expect crisp green apple brightness layered over rich cocoa and a lingering dulce de leche sweetness! A coffee perfect for espresso but also delicious in a cafetiere or mocha pot.
