Lot name: Volcan Azul Yellow Honey

Producer: Alejo Castro Khale
Region: West Valley

Processing & fermentation - Yellow Honey process involves removing the cherry layers, leaving some flesh and mucilage on the beans, and drying them to 11% moisture. This results in a lighter flavour with sweetness and fruity notes. The beans are dried on raised beds in the sun, taking several days to a couple of weeks.

Impact - Volcan Azul owns the surrounding land which is preserved rainforest to promote biodiversity at the farm. They also have another area covered in rainforest in the Osa Peninsula that holds 2.5% of the world's total biodiversity.

Brew Guide -  19.5g//94.5C//45g//21 - (Based on commercial equipment. Domestic grinders will require a longer extraction time within 30s) We think this recipe tastes best with 10-15ml of hot water added to the espresso.

More about Volcan Azul Yellow Honey Espresso

Year on year we are more than proud to showcase the excellent work that Alejo at Volcan Azul produces. Every coffee is meticulously managed from seed to processing. Coffee cherries are diligently measured for sugar content (brix) and only picked once the target brix level is reached indicating full maturation of the coffee. As part of a larger area of land that includes preserved rainforest, they are very passionate about having a positive impact on the environment at Volcan Azul. They’ve also secured an area of rainforest in the Osa peninsula known for holding 2.5% of the earth's biodiversity. This guarantees the protection of this area and safety of the unique ecology in Costa Rica. 


This lot is processed as yellow honey. A mechanical washer is used to remove 50% of the mucilage. The coffee is laid on raised beds to dry slowly whilst being covered at night to prevent added humidity.
