A sweet and mellow coffee defined by its honey-processing, creating a delightful sweetness and silky mouthfeel.
West Valley is one of Costa Rica’s most consistently admired regions, home to generations of producers who treat coffee cultivation not just as agriculture but as an art form. The honey process used here is especially well-executed—striking that middle ground between the crispness of washed coffees and the richness of naturals. In this method, some of the mucilage is left on the bean during drying, and in the West Valley’s dry climate, that yields exceptional clarity and sweetness. These coffees are handled with precision, often at family-run mills where every batch is a point of pride. The result is a smooth, elegantly layered cup that carries the signature Costa Rican balance—friendly, clean, and endlessly drinkable.
