Farm: Joicafe Micromill Process: Washed (Machine Washed) Varietals: Caturra Types, Modern Hybrids Roast Level: Medium
This washed lot from the Joicafe micromill highlights the clean, composed bittersweetness Costa Rican coffees are known for. At a medium roast, the cup opens with dense chocolate and hazelnut, layered with pungent bittersweet tones and a subtle hint of honey that sets a rich, grounded foundation.
On the palate, balanced sweetness and acidity come together around brown sugar and milk chocolate, supported by a mild, tea-like brightness that adds lift without sharpness. Subtle dried apple and soft citrus notes sit beneath the chocolate core, adding depth and structure rather than overt fruit character.
As it cools, the profile deepens into darker chocolate—leaning toward unsweetened baking cocoa—with lingering nutty tones and a clean, cocoa-forward finish. Smooth, versatile, and highly reliable, this coffee shines as both drip and espresso, offering enough intensity to stand on its own and the structure to perform beautifully in milk-based drinks.
