Durango Coffee Company

Costa Rica Las Lajas Red Honey

Visit Durango Coffee Company
Roaster Location: Durango, Colorado
Coffee Origin: Sabanilla de Alajuela, Costa Rica
Roast Level: Medium-Light
Agtron: 54/70
Est. Price: $15.95/12 ounces
Review Date: January 2021
Aroma: 9
Acidity /Structure : 8
Body: 9
Flavor: 9
Aftertaste: 8

Blind Assessment: Gently sweet-tart, complexly layered. Blueberry jam, jasmine, almond, cedar, caramel in aroma and cup. Fruit-forward structure with gentle acidity; full, syrupy mouthfeel. Finish consolidates to notes of blueberry and caramel with undertones of cedar.

Notes: Produced by Oscar and Francisca Chacon from trees of the Caturra and Catuai varieties of Arabica; certified organically grown. Processed by the red honey method, meaning that some fruit flesh (“honey”) was allowed to adhere to the beans during drying. Located in southwestern Colorado, Durango Coffee lays claim to a rich coffee history that dates to 1986. Its motto is “Tough Town, Great Coffee.” Visit www.durangocoffee.com or call 800-748-2275 for more information.

The Bottom Line : A red-honey-processed, sweetly fruit-centered Costa Rica cup, lively and engaging.
