In Grecia, Naranjo, in Costa Rica’s West Valley, lies the Cerro San Luis Micromill. This coffee, along with several other lots on nearby farms, was grown by two sisters and their husbands. The two second-generation coffee producing families also grow many other coffee varieties on their farms, such as Caturra, Bourbon/Orange Bourbon, SL-28, Catuai and Yellow Catuai.
Honey process coffees seek to convey the intensely fruity flavors of naturally processed coffees while maintaining some of the clarity and complexity typically found in washed coffees. This is accomplished by removing some amount of fruit from the seed, but still leaving mucilage on the coffee during the drying process. The term “honey process” comes from the close resemblance to honey that the leftover mucilage leaves.
