COSTA RICA Los Ticos

Experience the "Pura Vida" with this quintessential Costa Rican coffee.

"Los Ticos" is the affectionate nickname for the people of Costa Rica, and this coffee is a perfect reflection of their national spirit: friendly, balanced, and full of life. Sourced from the lush, high-altitude volcanic slopes of Costa Rica's famed Central Valley, this is the classic, crowd-pleasing brew that has made the country a world-renowned coffee origin.

Grown by dedicated farmers, this lot is composed primarily of Caturra and Catuaí varietals, which are celebrated for their exceptional cup quality. The beans are processed using the meticulous Washed method, a technique that Costa Rica has perfected. This process removes the outer fruit cherry before drying, resulting in an incredibly clean, crisp, and articulate flavour profile that lets the true character of the origin shine through.

We've roasted this coffee to highlight its signature balance, creating a brew that is both sweet and bright, making it the perfect all-day, everyday coffee.
