  • Café Rey

    Curridabat, Costa Rica

  • Sanchez Gran Reserva Costa Rica

Roast: Medium Review Date: February 2003
Origin: West-central Costa Rica. Price: NA
 

Blind Assessment: Sweet, round, balanced, with a striking complex of aromatics that reads as wine or spicy fruit, figs perhaps. The finish is rich, winy, and slightly astringent.

Notes: Cafe Rey is a large Costa Rican roasting company; Cafe Sanchez Gran Reserva is its premium offering. Visit www.caferey.net for more info.

Who Should Drink It: This dry but spicy, rather low-key cup should make a fine afternoon or evening cup.

Coffee, more so than wine, is a continually changing product. Recent reviews, whether written by Coffee Review or readers, are most likely to reflect current versions of a given coffee.
