Honey Processing Costa Rica gave birth to the honey processing method, now adopted across Central America. In this meticulous process, some or all of the mucilage, often referred to as coffee honey, is left on the parchment during drying. This imparts a unique sweetness to the coffee, reminiscent of natural honey. Within the Tarrazú region, where farms average three hectares in size, a dedicated community of farmers delivers carefully selected, ripe cherries to the San Diego wet mill. The coffee chosen for this special honey process is exceptional due to its remarkable cup profile. No two honey coffees are alike, given the complexity of this craft process. It all begins with the meticulous selection of perfectly ripe cherries. After depulping, the mucilage remains, allowing the natural sugars to enrich the coffee's sweetness. The coffee is then slowly and evenly dried on African beds or patios. Costa Rica Green Coffee Origin Report Costa Rican coffees are renowned for their exceptional quality and innovation.
